Guest registration for live events
We have trouble introducing the live events feature if not every attendee is known. A solution would be, that additionally to the live event option "organization wide (registration required)" potential external viewer could register for the event, similar to the "Guest" registration for a team. So we can invite internal and external users and ensure that every viewer is known with name and email.

Any chance of an update on this soon please ???
We need to make a decision on our webinar toolset shortly. We will be unable to persist with Live Events if the registration issue is not resolved, which will damage our ambition to standardise on MS Teams.

Really hope this is coming soon, not being able to add external guests easily is causing major pain for our organisation. There must be an easier way.

This is the number one thing keeping us from completely removing GoTo and Zoom from our portfolio and only using Teams across the enterprise.

This feature would better enable us to utilize teams in place of zoom for large external webinars and meetings.

Hi there, my team is still asking for this. As our group continues to avoid in-person events, we are finding additional needs from Teams that did not come up in the first couple months of the pandemic.

This is a critical feature, in the absence of this basic feature, our users will continue to use other services and they will limit Live Events for internal events.

Any updates on this Ms. Admin???? Teams should be on parity if not superior in features compared to Zoom Webinar, GoToWebinar, Zoho Meeting, etc.

Senior staff at my federal customer's site are considering moving their events from Teams Live Events to GotoWebinar specifically for the optional registration with calendar invite capability it has.

This is needed to compete against Webex and other conferencing providers. Please add this feature!

We need anonymous attendee to enter some personal info like name and email address. This is a critical to know as the organizer.

We need anonymous attendee to enter some personal details like name, mobile, e-mail etc., before being able to join the live event.

My answer is no, based on the end users (Construction field staff) that I train with, unless the registration process is seamless and does not interfere with the ability to join the live event easily/immediately.

Does anyone know of a plugin that would work for this? What we are thinking is if there was a way to integrate this in to Pardot so each attendee was sent a specific link to the event that would work as well.

We need the ability to invite a specific distribution of users who are outside of the organization. We have acquired a company and they have a separate M365 tenant in GovCloud. We are in commercial cloud.

I want to know the status of Teams live event registration feature for external users.

Registration of guests will be helpful to contact the registered guests for further communication, like typical question raised by a guest can be answered after the event.

Essential for controlling external attendees. Our marketing department would love this feature. The prospect of competition joining public events, makes live events not suitable for client webinars.

This is a very important requirement from a security perspective. We use the public event option quite often (because of the nuances involved with org-wide participation across groups of our companies) and many participants join as Anonymous. It would be good to capture their basic details like Name and E-mail ID/Phone Number, which should be verified with a verification link or an OTP; and only then allow them to join the event. Without this, it is not sure if we have strangers joining our events. Please let us know when this can be implemented - A MUST HAVE!
