Salt Lake Temple to Open to Nonmembers in 2027

In 2027, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will host a public open house, allowing nonmembers an unusual chance to explore the interior of the renowned Salt Lake Temple. This landmark in Salt Lake City, Utah, has been under significant renovation since 2019. Following major renovations, it is customary to offer the public a glimpse of the sacred space prior to rededication. The announcement, made on September 3, 2026, was covered by The New York Times. This extensive renovation, one of the most significant in the temple's history, includes seismic upgrades and restoration of original elements. While specific dates for the open house remain undisclosed, it is expected to take place before the temple's anticipated rededication in 2027.
