The Phoenix lander is set to land on Mars on Sunday May 25th. The NASA web site for Phoenix is here:

NASA TV will also have live coverage of the control center. Here's the NASA TV web site:

I use a direct link to the MS media player web page:

Here's the landing schedule
(Note the times on this page are Pacific TZ).

Looks like NASA TV coverage starts at around 6:30pm EDT, Sunday May 25, with most of the excitement starting around an hour later.

BTW, here's a map of Mars landing sites.
