The Bonner Family To Join Star Studded Tabernacle Choir Benefit Concert

The Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra at Temple Square and the O.C. Tanner Gift of Music Trust have announced that in addition to acclaimed guest artists Donny Osmond, David Foster, Katharine McPhee, Stephanie J. Block, and Sebastian Arcelus, The Bonner Family will also join the Choir for its Songs of Hope Benefit Concert at the iconic Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, California, on June 24 and 25, 2026. 

The Bonner Family music group is comprised of Mom, Dad, eight children, and the eldest grandchild. They create music with an uplifting focus, incorporating their faith and love for the arts into their respective careers. Despite residing in different states, they remain the best of friends and have toured North America, South America, West Africa, and Australia. Their goal is to spread joy and hope, reaching the hearts of people all over the world through music.

The Tabernacle Choir first performed at the Hollywood Bowl in 1926. 100 years later, the Choir celebrates this remarkable anniversary with an evening under the stars uniting music and humanitarian purpose in a concert focused on caring for women and children around the world.

One hundred percent of ticket sale revenues from the concert will be donated to trusted charities, including CARE, Helen Keller Intl, and The Hunger Project. These charities work with Caring for Women and Children, an initiative led by the Relief Society of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints which is focused on improving the health, education, and well-being of women and children through local and global efforts

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will match ticket revenues, effectively doubling concert ticket revenues donated to charity.

“This delightful evening concert presents a meaningful intersection of music and purpose,” said Tabernacle Choir President Michael O. Leavitt. “As we return to the Hollywood Bowl, we do so not only to celebrate a historic moment, but to invite others to enjoy an evening of beautiful music from the Choir and renowned guest artists and help care for women and children worldwide.”

These performances continue the Choir’s expanding global presence, following its recent international concerts in Mexico City, Manila, Lima, Buenos Aires, and São Paulo as part of its Songs of Hope tour.
