In 2022, Conan was nominated for Best Video Design at The Irish Times Irish Theatre Awards, received the Visual Artists Ireland Experience Award with Vivienne Dick, was the British Council's Filmmaker-in-Residence at Centre Culturel Irlandais Paris, and received an Arts Council Ireland Theatre Bursary to expand his practice as a Theatre Director.
