When the Conference Center opened in 2000, The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square’s Christmas concert moved from the Salt Lake Tabernacle into the new 21,000-seat auditorium. Singer Gladys Knight and actor Roma Downey were the first guest performers for the concerts in the Conference Center.
Since then, a variety of award-winning performers have stepped on the Conference Center stage to sing or share a narration and the Christmas story about the Savior’s birth.
Past choir President Ron Jarrett said he traced the roots of the Christmas concert back to an event held for employees of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
“And then it expanded, and in 2000, when we were able to enter this beautiful facility [the Conference Center], we began the tradition of opening it up to many, many more people. … It has become a sought-after family tradition,” Jarrett said in 2017.
PBS began broadcasting a 60-minute recording of the previous year’s concert in 2004. In 2017, BYUtv joined with the choir to produce the broadcast specials.
A gift to the community, the free concert features the 360-voice Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square, 150 of the Orchestra at Temple Square instrumentalists, and the 32-person Bells at Temple Square ensemble. Gabriel’s Trumpets and dancers have also participated in the performances.
In the fall, a guest artist is announced and registration for the random ticket selection opens.
The annual concert includes music with the choir, orchestra, guest performers, an organ solo, a narrated story and the Christmas story from Luke 2. It concludes with all singing “Angels from the Realms of Glory.”
A dress rehearsal was typically held on Thursday, with performances on Friday and Saturday, and the guest artists participate in the “Music & the Spoken Word” Sunday morning. More recently, the Thursday night concert is considered a regular performance.
Here is a list of past guest artists at the Tabernacle Choir’s Christmas concerts and their performances since 2000 to the recent announcement of Broadway singer Ruthie Anne Miles to perform in 2024.
