Location and Getting There

Use 2211 Woodward Avenue, Detroit, MI 48201 for the theatre. The address is in downtown Detroit along the Woodward entertainment corridor. Check your parking reservation separately: the theatre address is not necessarily the entrance to the garage or lot you have chosen.

Entry and Door Times

Doors for concerts and general events typically open 60 minutes before the scheduled event time, though door times are subject to change. All guests are screened upon entry, so visitors should plan their arrival time accordingly. Re-entry is prohibited once guests leave the venue.

Seating and Age Requirements

Guests two years of age and older are required to have a ticket for most events. Guests under the age of two may sit in a ticketed guest's lap provided they do not obstruct the view of other guests. Age restrictions can vary for events at the Fox Theatre, particularly for children's events.

To help ensure guest safety and enjoyment, sitting or standing in the aisles or stairways is prohibited. Guests are asked to refrain from leaning against rails throughout the venue and will be asked to return to their assigned ticketed seat if necessary.

Bag Policy and Prohibited Items

The Fox Theatre describes its entry rules as a no-bag policy, with limited small-item and medical exceptions. Bags larger than 4 × 6 × 1.5 inches are prohibited, including cases for laptops, tablets, cameras and binoculars.

Single compartment bags, wallets, clutches, fanny packs, and clear bags smaller than 4" x 6" x 1.5" with or without a handle or strap are permitted. Exceptions to this policy include bags required for dietary or medical necessity, such as diaper bags or bags for oxygen, insulin, epi-pens, and other medical devices. Medical or diaper bags must measure smaller than 16" x 16" x 8".

Accessibility Services

Accessible restrooms are located on the main floor in the Columbia Street vestibule. Accessible seating and companion seating options are available for guests who require them.

For questions about accessible seating or other arrangements, contact 313 Presents at 313-471-7929 or guestexperience@olyent.com. Explain the assistance needed before choosing a seat, and confirm any performance-specific arrangements.
