About Martin Woldson Theatre At The Fox
The Martin Woldson Theatre at the Fox is a centerpiece of Spokane’s downtown arts scene. Originally opening in 1931 as the Fox Theatre, this historic venue was renamed in 2007 after a generous donation from Myrtle Woldson. Today, it serves as the home of the Spokane Symphony and hosts a diverse lineup of performances, including classical, jazz, comedy, and special events. With a refined but welcoming atmosphere, the Fox remains a memorable destination for live entertainment in the Heart of the Inland Northwest.
