The Fox Theater is a testament to architectural grandeur and musical magic in the vibrant heart of Uptown Oakland.

Originally debuting as a grand movie palace in 1928, the theater fell silent in 1966 and remained closed for over four decades. Now, thanks to an extensive $75 million renovation spearheaded by Another Planet Entertainment, the theater has been carefully restored to its former splendor.
