How do I duplicate a meeting/event?

I had to update my teams today (May 2026) as I could no longer send meeting invites. Now I don't see an option to duplicate events as I could previously. As all of the meetings are based on duplicated events for the purpose of having the same chat & invitation purposes, I would like to know how I can continue to do this.

Thanks!

    Good day @Pards Singh, and I appreciate the clear explanation of your concern.  

    With the latest updates in Teams, the steps for duplicating an event have changed and now vary depending on the type of meeting or event you are working with. 

    Please follow the steps below based on your scenario: 

    Scenario 1: For regular Teams meetings or calendar events 

    Open Microsoft Teams > Go to the Calendar tab. 

    Locate the meeting or event you want to copy > Right-click on the meeting > Select Duplicate event.

    A new event window will appear, allowing you to edit details before saving. 

    Scenario 2: For Town Hall or Webinar 

    Open Microsoft Teams > Go to the Calendar tab. 

    Double-click the Town Hall or Webinar event or select it and choose View event.

    At the top of the page, click Duplicate event.

    Make any necessary edits and save. 

    • If the Duplicate option is missing 

    If the option is not showing in the Teams desktop app, it may be related to the updated interface or a temporary client issue. You can verify this using the Teams on the web: 

    Open a web browser, then go to the browser settings and clear browsing data. Set the time range to "All time" to avoid issues caused by outdated cache.

    Go to https://www.office.com and sign in your work account.     

    Once signed in, select Apps > Choose Teams. Repeat the duplication steps above.
