History
Before the Fox was a staple music venue, it served as the Rialto Theater, the Buffalo Dancing Club, the Anchorage Bar & Grill, Ted’s Buff Cafe, and most recently, The Fox Movie Theater. The movie theater opened in 1961 and could seat up to 500 movie goers. This format lasted until 1991, when a liquor license was acquired. Demolition of the Fox Movie Theater began in 1991 after a liquor license was acquired by the property owners. The demo began to uncover the roots of the building, dating back to 1926. The marquee sign and iconic Fox sign still on the building today are original from the movie theater era. The Fox Theatre first opened its doors to the public on March 6, 1992, with a performance from The Meters.

On March 6, 2022, the Fox Theatre celebrated its 30th anniversary, with a declaration from Governor Jared Polis.
