Overview
- The service begins at noon MDT in the Conference Center in Salt Lake City and requires tickets to enter.
- About 20,000 tickets were claimed within roughly 20 minutes of release, according to reports.
- The church is broadcasting the funeral globally on its website and other platforms with multilingual feeds, and a spokesperson says the event is a worship service with prayers, hymns and talks rather than temple rites.
- Local agencies planned downtown road closures and increased security, and UTA is honoring event tickets as fare with an elevated transit police presence.
- Burial at Pioneer Cemetery will be private, and the next church president is expected to be announced after the services, with Dallin H. Oaks widely reported as the likely successor.
