Conference Visits

Many people in Utah enjoy hosting others during LDS General Conference week. General Conference is held in the new Conference Center adjacent to Temple Square in Salt Lake City, Utah. Spring Conference is generally the first weekend in April, and Fall Conference is the first weekend in October.

Utah! Home Exchange helps people who want to host others find those who need a place to stay. Conference visits are most often done as a “Hospitality Exchange,” meaning that the family is there during the guest’s visit. The Utah family then has the opportunity to stay with their guests at a later date.

If you would like to be a Utah host: Using our regular Registration Form, register your home. On question #10, “What type of exchange are you offering?” be sure to check the box “LDS Conference Visits Hospitality Exchange.” It is not necessary to register for any other type of exchange unless you wish to do so. Some people will only register to host others for Conference Visits.

Out-of-town people who would like to stay with you will get in touch with you. It’s possible that you may have more folks contact you than you have room to keep. In that case, you simply will have to let them know, as kindly as possible, that your home is full this time.

If you would like to come to Utah and stay with one of our members during Conference:
First, using our regular Registration Form, register your home. On question #10, “What type of exchange are you offering?” be sure to check the box “LDS Conference Visits Hospitality Exchange.” Please register well in advance of your planned visit!

Then as a registered member, you will be able to select a few potential hosts, login, and then get the contact information for the hosts you have selected. You will then contact your proposed hosts and arrange your visit like any other hospitality exchange. It’s a good idea to do this several months before Conference.
