Summary
                Teams Webinars and Townhalls have updated the co-organizer experience to allow full control over event details, including editing, publishing, and canceling events. The rollout timeline has been updated, with targeted release in early December 2024 and general availability by early January 2025. No preparation is needed.


More Information

Scheduling, setting up, and managing an event is not a simple task. Which is why we allow co-organizer to be added to the event so they can work alongside or on behalf of the organizer. So far co-organizers were able to set up event theming, manage registration, meeting options, view reports and more but were not able to edit event details like title, date/time, description, event group; nor publish or cancel event. Now they can! Co-organizer can edit event details, publish, and cancel the event like the organizer can. So once the co-organizer is added they will have full parity of experience as organizer and control/manage/edit event. 

When this will happen:

Targeted release: We will begin rolling out early December 2024 (previously early October) and expect to complete by mid-December 2024 (previously mid-October).

General Availability (Worldwide, GCC): We will begin rolling out mid-December 2024 (previously mid-October) and expect to complete by early January 2024 (previously early November).

How this will affect your organization:

When co-organizer opens the event scheduling page, they should have the ability to edit the details page, publish, and cancel the event. 

What you need to do to prepare:

Nothing required to prepare.
