The Grammy-winning, platinum hit-making Bruno Mars is getting his first primetime special.
CBS confirms that “Bruno Mars: 24K Magic Live At The Apollo” will air from 10-11PM ET/PT on November 29.
Indicated by the title, the special was taped at the iconic Apollo Theater in New York City.
Mars kicks off the special with a performance atop the Apollo’s marquee.
“Also, Mars and his band the Hooligans take to the streets, visiting, singing and entertaining locals in exciting, intimate, must-see moments,” adds CBS. “The special, which will continue to tape in the coming weeks, features exhilarating, never-before-seen stage performances throughout the broadcast.”
“For me, Bruno Mars is the greatest performer in the world,” said Ben Winston, who is executive producing with Mars. “To be producing his first television special is a true honor. This will be a special show and a special night.”
