Summary

Microsoft Teams admin center will introduce centralized management for Attendee Capacity Pack licenses starting late April 2026. Admins can discover, assign, revoke licenses, view impact warnings, and monitor license status without policy changes or user workflow impact. No action is required before rollout.

Details

Introduction

We’re introducing new license management capabilities for Microsoft Teams Events in the Teams admin center (TAC). This update provides admins with a centralized experience to discover, assign, and manage Attendee Capacity Pack licenses for event organizers from a single location. This experience aligns with existing Teams add-on license management patterns and helps admins proactively manage licensing needs for upcoming events.

]When this will happen]

General Availability (Worldwide, GCC): Rollout will begin in late April 2026 and is expected to complete by early May 2026.
