Wallace, Kelly and Baier Bret Baier, Megyn Kelly, Chris Wallace return for March 3 debate

Fox News will host its final Republican primary debate of the cycle on March 3, in Detroit, Mich.

While a March debate hosted by Fox had always been on the RNC's debate schedule, the exact day and location were not yet known. The debate will be held five days before the state's primary on March 8.

The network also announced that anchors Bret Baier, Megyn Kelly and Chris Wallace will return to co-moderate the debate. Donald Trump boycotted the last Fox News debate in January partly over Kelly's inclusion as moderator and the network's refusal to remove her from the event.

A Fox spokesperson confirmed that a contract for a venue has not yet been locked down, but sources and other media reports point to The Fox Theatre in Detroit.

A Democratic debate will also be held in the state, in Flint on March 6. The final GOP debate of the cycle will be on March 10, and will be hosted by CNN in Miami, Fla.

In a bit of pre-debate publicity, Kelly will be on "The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon" on Thursday night and on "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" during its live broadcast after the Superbowl.
