Don Lemon & DL Hughley Bring 'Anything Goes' to Capital One Hall

Don Lemon and D.L. Hughley are bringing a new kind of live night out to the DC area this spring, when Don Lemon & DL Hughley: DL + DL “Anything Goes” lands at Capital One Hall in Tysons on Saturday, April 18, 2026 at 7:30 p.m.

Billed as “Anything Goes,” the event is designed to feel less like a traditional stand-up stop and more like a high-voltage conversation between two sharp, opinionated voices—one rooted in journalism, the other forged on comedy stages. The premise is simple: expect a wide-ranging, no-safety-rails discussion that can pivot from social issues and race to pop culture and the headlines of the moment, with plenty of laughs along the way.

Lemon arrives with the instincts of a longtime interviewer and storyteller. He currently hosts The Don Lemon Show, which is available on YouTube and major podcast platforms, and is built around candid conversations with guests alongside Lemon’s own commentary on the topics shaping everyday life. That blend of interviewing and perspective is a natural fit for a live format where the point is spontaneity—following the room, the moment, and whatever the two “DLs” decide to unpack next.

Hughley, meanwhile, has spent decades perfecting the art of saying what others won’t—fast, fearless, and funny. One of the “Original Kings of Comedy,” he’s remained a staple on the stand-up circuit while also keeping a strong foothold in radio and media, including his nationally syndicated The D.L. Hughley Show. Put him in a setting where the conversation can turn on a dime, and “Anything Goes” starts to sound like a promise rather than a slogan.

The one-night engagement takes place in Capital One Hall’s Main Theater. Doors are listed for 6:30 p.m., and Ticketmaster notes that everyone attending—regardless of age—needs a ticket. Capital One Hall is located at 7750 Capital One Tower Road in Tysons, and the venue advises that general event parking is in the Visitor and Associate Parking Garage (1680 Capital One Drive South, McLean), a short walk to the hall.

Tickets are available through Ticketmaster, and if you’re up for a night where the laughs and the commentary can swing from provocative to unexpectedly personal in the span of a minute, this is one date to circle.
