How to set up an offline event on MS Teams Calendar

There is no way to do this from the Teams calendar directly at the moment. By default any meeting created through the Teams Calendar gets a meeting link with it. The best way to create the offline event is using the Outlook Calendar instead. Hopefully this will be possible eventually because it would be handy to not have to leave the Teams environment when setting up events.Schnittlauch
You can add an offline location from the Teams calendar as you indicated. I think the problem ayao24 is referring to is that even if you add a location there is still a Teams meeting link automatically embedded in the event. As a result, there may be confusion for invited attendees as to whether this is an online or offline meeting and how they are to attend.
ayao24 I am also experiencing this problem. However, I created the event in Outlook and the event still links to a TEAMS call-in event adding confusion since the event is not meant to be called-into. I tried setting up the event through Outlook as an appointment and as a non-Teams meeting, but each instance creates the TEAMS call-in links. Any Outlook work-arounds? Thanks!
