Tonight’s debate will be hosted by Jake Tapper and Dana Bash in Atlanta and will mark the first in-person showdown of the 2024 campaign between President Joe Biden and his predecessor, former President Donald Trump.
The event begins at 9 p.m. ET in the network’s studios in Atlanta. Both candidates agreed to accept the rules and format of the debate, as outlined in letters sent to the campaigns by the network in May.
The 90-minute debate will include two commercial breaks, according to the network, and campaign staff may not interact with their candidate during that time.
