Group Calendar in Outlook 2016
Hi folks,
Apologies for not seeing this thread earlier.
We certainly don't recommend users opening group calendars by going to Open calendar > From address book. As some of you pointed out, it's the union of events in group members' calendars, not what is on the group calendar itself.
At this point, all users on the Monthly Channel for Office 365 ProPlus should see all their groups in the left navigation pane in the calendar module by default--in fact, for almost a year now.
Users on Semi-Annual Channel and Semi-Annual Channel (Targeted) should see all their groups in the left navigation pane in the calendar module in builds after (but not including) 1808.
Whichever version you’re on, you can always go to the group from the mail module, and then press “Calendar” from the ribbon. As well, as other folks have mentioned, you can also right click on the group in the left nav in the mail module, and favorite it; this will also make the group appear in the left nav in the calendar module.

Click the three dots at the bottom and select 'Folder' view.
You should then be able to add a Calendar to your Favorites.

Thanks! Stephen Harling
I can click the folder view but don't see any sign of my group calendar (strategydigitalcommunications), nor options to favourite anything.

Have a look at this, https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3168347/users-in-an-exchange-hybrid-deployment-can-t-access-office-365-groups. It refers to Office 365 running in Hybrid Mode.
