We discuss $N=2\to N=1$ reduction in four dimensional conformal supergravity. In particular, we keep the off-shell structure of supermultiplets (except hypermultiplets). As we will show, starting with (almost) off-shell conformal supergravity makes the procedure simpler than that from $N=2$ Poincar\'e supergravity, which makes it easier to show the correspondence to the standard $N=1$ conformal supergravity. We find that the $N=1$ superconformal symmetry is simply realized by truncating the gravitino multiplet. We also discuss the consistency with the original $N=2$ system and show the reduced $N=1$ conformal supergravity action.
