As communicated in MC686187, after March 31, 2024, any classic Teams users that haven’t updated to new Teams, will be automatically updated to new Teams. New Teams will support Teams Live Events until its scheduled retirement on September 30th, 2024. Customers using Teams Live Events within new Teams should not expect any changes to the Attendee & Presenter experiences within new Teams. Teams Live Events Producers and Organizers, which currently cannot use new Teams, will have their capabilities brought to new Teams.
