Trip Marks Second Year in a Row CONAN Has Travelled to the Host City of the
NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Final Four(R) and National Championship
TBS's popular late-night series CONAN is heading to Dallas for a week of shows in the host city of this year's NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Final Four(R) and National Championship. CONAN will tape the shows March 31-April 3 at the historic Majestic Theater. Located at 1925 Elm Street in Dallas, the Majestic was built in 1921 and has hosted such legendary comics as Bob Hope and Mae West.
CONAN's Dallas shows will mark the fourth year in a row the late-night hit has gone on the road since premiering on TBS in 2010. Last year, CONAN became the first late-night program ever to tape a week of shows from Atlanta, host city of the 2013 NCAA Final Four Weekend. CONAN went on the road for the first time in 2011, when it travelled to New York City. That trip was followed in summer 2012 with a week of shows from Chicago.
To attend one of CONAN's Dallas shows in person, fans can make a free ticket request at www.teamcoco.com/dallas starting Tuesday, Feb. 18. Guests and programming highlights for CONAN's Dallas shows will be announced soon.
