The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints will be holding a Youth Cultural Celebration Saturday at the Taco Bell Arena.

"More than 9200 area youth will stage a production featuring more than 4000 dancers, 99 fiddlers, and a 1000+ voice youth choir to celebrate the rededication of the Boise Idaho Temple," said Deb Bowden with the church. "Thomas S. Monson, president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, will also address the audience assembled for the program."

The Youth Cultural Celebration marks the completion of the renovated Boise temple, which will be rededicated Nov. 18 by President Monson.

Saturday's event is closed to the public, but may affect traffic for the Boise State football game.
