There are actually several Mormon Tabernacles throughout the western United States. There were originally 79 Tabernacles, but many of these were torn down or refurbished for other uses when the Church began to use Stake Centers instead.

The most famous Mormon Tabernacle is the Salt Lake Tabernacle, also known as the Tabernacle on Temple Square. The Salt Lake Tabernacle is 150 feet across and 250 feet long. It is the home of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir.

There are several Mormon Tabernacles throughout the American West, but the most famous is the Salt Lake Tabernacle on Temple Square, home of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. The Tabernacle has pew benches, not seats, so the number of people that can fit depends on how small they are and how closely together they sit, but the listed capacity is seven thousand people including the choir seats. The tabernacle used to hold about 1,000 more people but the benches were spaced further apart (moving from 9 inches to 14 inches apart) during a renovation in 2005-2007.
