Reviews
"Apart from the magnificent 21,000 seater edifice, I particularly enjoyed hearing the sisters on mission share their beliefs. It was fascinating to hear that the organ at the conference center has 7,708 pipes. The one at the Tabernacle is a massive 11,623-pipe organ - the 16th largest in the world."
"We came to see the Tabernacle Choir Christmas Concert... the performance was absolutely amazing!! The venue is excellent. The balcony was not reserved, but they had ushers that actually helped folks find a seat. It was great! So rather than leaving gaps, they filled them with late arrivals. The acoustics are phenomenal, and the building is beautiful. The organ, the choir, the orchestra, the guests... all top-notch. Highly recommended!"
"The conference center is an absolute incredible building. We attended the Christmas concert put on by the tabernacle choir and it was absolutely incredible. There’s not a bad seat in the house. The sets were so detailed and beautiful camera work to put details up on the big screen was wonderfully done, everything was clean, and the volunteers were so helpful and friendly, I absolutely love this building!"
"The building is amazing! You just look up and you're in awe at the structure, the sound quality and the most important is the Tabernacle Choir that is known worldwide as the best choir in the world! You can watch performances and they have a Christmas show that they do every year. This year was the best presentation ever! You can also take tours of the building. They had it beautifully decorated for the holidays."
"I came to visit for an afternoon session in the October General Conference 2023. The establishment and its surrounding area is very spacious and well-maintained. The entrance process to get in went pretty smoothly, they have efficient ticket scanners and security at each doors and though it was busy, we only waited about 15 minutes in the line, before we were ushered in. The main lobby and hallways is very clean and organized. They have couple and sister missionaries everywhere to answer any questions and direct you to your seating area. The hallways are wonderfully adorned with amazing artwork and beautiful paintings. The facility is well-equipped with escalators, stairs, water fountains, restrooms, seating, audio visual, light and sound systems. My few suggestions would be having better signage (arrows and/or maps) around to indicate where the restrooms are located. I found myself and quite a bit of others trying to look for the restrooms during the intermediate hymnn in between session. Another suggestion is renovating the 2nd floor restroom, to manage the traffic better, it was a bottle neck area to get in and out the doors."
