These addresses are translated into more than 100 languages and are broadcast worldwide, allowing people everywhere to hear words of hope and peace.
Music in the Conference Center uplifts visitors as well. The Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra at Temple Square perform here during conference sessions and throughout the year. The auditorium houses a 7,000-pipe organ, and the venue hosts concerts such as Music & the Spoken Word and the annual Christmas with The Tabernacle Choir.
During your visit, explore exhibits highlighting the ministry of Jesus Christ, the history of the Salt Lake Temple, and the faith of Latter-day Saints. You can discover bronze sculptures, sacred artwork, and a replica of the Christus statue. The rooftop gardens offer sweeping views of Salt Lake City and the Salt Lake Temple.
