In preparation for the Salt Lake Temple’s six-month open house next year, the Conference Center on Temple Square will be closed for 11 months.

It will be open, however, for general conference and other major scheduled events, such as “Luz de las Naciones” and the Tabernacle Choir Christmas concerts. Conference Center parking and access to parking elevators will remain open and operational during this time.

From March 30, 2026 through March 1, 2027, the Conference Center of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Salt Lake City will be closed to the public.

According to a communication sent to Church employees on Feb. 18, the purpose of the closure is “to facilitate critical construction, infrastructure upgrades, and exhibit development in preparation for the Salt Lake Temple celebration.”

It continued: “This operational pause is essential to allow project teams to execute a significantly expanded scope of work and ensure the facility is fully prepared to support the elevated guest experience planned for 2027.”
