Live Teams Events external participants

Question

Hi everyone,I am wanting to use Teams for a live event with all attendees joining externally as guests/anonymously. Are there limitations to how many people can join a teams event this way?&nbsp;I used Skype last week and if people didn't have a Skype account it was limited to 25 guest participants. So I need to know if there is a similar restriction for Teams before i go ahead with it&nbsp;Thanks

The current limits are listed here:&nbsp;https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/limits-specifications-teams#teams-live-events
There's no limit specific to the number of external participants afaik.
