Fox Theatre to close through April due to COVID-19 pandemic

The Visalia Fox Theatre today announced that all remaining shows in April will be canceled or postponed to later dates in response to the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic. Following the order of Governor Gavin Newsom and guidance from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the California Department of Public Health, and the Tulare County Health Department, all public events are canceled through April 30.

“We’re following the governor’s orders and the CDC’s guidelines not just because we have to but because the health and well-being of our patrons is our number one priority,” said Vikky Escobedo, Executive Director of The Fox. “While we’re incredibly saddened to cease operations for another month, we know that we’re all going to get through this together. The Fox isn’t going anywhere because it’s a core part of this community. We’ll be back and open for business after this crisis.”
