Is there any solution on how to get a good working calendar in Teams.
My users have so much problem when being linked to Outlook calendars. Either they dont select the correct calendar or just get confused over the switching from Teams to a browser.
I just want one calendar where i can put all scheduling so everyone can view it in Teams.
A webpage with a calendar is not good enough since there is no week, day, mounth view, just an agenda.
Is there some third party solutions. Anyone making a webbased calendar that works to link right into teams. Hopefully also on mobile.

Can not find any sharepoint app/list that works like that in the modern UI.
The only thing i find is called calendar and it only gives me the Agenda view. No mounth, week or day view.
I would be very happy if you could show what you did and what result you get.
Please some screenshots would be great!

Is that the Group calendar?
How did you add that to a page with the modern UI?
Or is that a sharepoint calendar and not the Team Group calendar?
And as far as i know, i can not access that calendar with a proper UI from a mobile device.... i will get a full screen sharepoint website to try and zoom in and out to add events etc?
Or am i wrong?

Here is that same calendar on the SharePoint mobile app.

Ok, ill test this.
But how do i create a standard (not modern UI) webpage in a team sharepoint site?
How do i even start to create that calendar.
The Team sharepoint enviroment seems to only be modern UI and i cant find anything about creating a new calendar app there.
Do you mind showing me?

Thanks, found it.
Will test this, it looks decent.
Had hoped for a working group calender within Teams itself.
A builtin module for a team calendar that Team owners could administrate.
Also ability to have sub-calendars for channels...
Maybe MS is working on something like that.

Well now i got an idea... but now im stuck on how to embed the sharepoint calendar to a new site.
I really want the Team content on the Team website (sharepoint).
But it seems it is not possible to embed a sharepoint calendar on a Modern UI site, or am i missing something?
Reason for wanting to embed the page is to be able to add content above and under it.
And also be able to add my own code to make the page go in fullscreen.
Got these pages that i want in old sharepoint style... but working on migrating things to Teams.
Any idea on if this is possible, creating the old site on a Team sharepoint site?

You can use embed webpart. Refer to this post: https://twitter.com/Beau__Cameron/status/992038896908292096

Grrr to bad then.
Guess ill either then have the option to use an old sharepoint site where i can create the old pages.
Or just accept the fullscreen option is not possible.

As already reported by others the feature is under review (then it won't be released soon) but you can use either the Group calendar from OWA or a SharePoint calendar adding a website tab to a Teams channel.
From my tests the results are very different one another.
Let's see the 4 options I tested:

This is what I did...
After much struggle, I finally fell back on using the already created "Events" in Sharepoint.
1. I first wanted it in Quick Launch for easier access by my team when accessings SP site directly.
To add "Events" to SP's Quick Launch:
Select Site contents > Events > ... > Settings
Select List name, description and navigation
Select "Yes" radio button to display on Quick Launch. Click Save.
2. I wanted to add the calendar to MS Teams. I followed someone else's suggestion to use the website option.
To add website to MS Teams:
Click "+" button in MS Teams.
Select "Website".
Give the tab a name, and paste in Event's URL from SP Settings page.
Use this URL:

Final Look:
I then followed this guide...
...to color code things on the calendar by category. (everything by default shows up as one color)
