Invite attendees to a live event in Microsoft Teams
Important:
-
Teams live events will no longer be going away on September 30, 2024, as previously announced. While we still recommend switching to Teams town halls for new features and experiences, you can now schedule live events beyond September 2024.
-
For more information, please read this blog post for more information.
As a live event organizer, one of your responsibilities is inviting attendees. When you schedule a live event in Teams, it only sends the calendar invite to event team members.
For info on which event participants are classified as "attendees," see Roles in a Teams meeting.
-
In Teams, select Calendar
-
Select the live event.
-
For events that'll be produced in Teams, select Get link to copy the live event link to share with attendees.
Note: Don't try to invite attendees via a Teams meeting. A new Teams meeting will have its own meeting link, which users might confuse with the live event attendee link.
Your attendees will be able to watch the event in Teams—desktop (Windows or Mac), web, or mobile. If they don't have Teams, they can also use a browser (Chrome, Firefox, or Edge). To change or update details of the live event, open the invite from your Teams Calendar, not from Outlook.
