Groups have limited support for categories, so I'm afraid that's not possible.
For a Group Calendar the color category in Outlook Desktop app not synced with Outlook Web Application
Hello, the color categorizes do not sync for a group calendar. On my personal calendar they sync just fine. However, when I go to a group calendar, all the events stay greyed out. Is there a way to sync the colors for a group calendar.
For a group calendar, I assign color category to eleven categorize my mail in Outlook Desktop app, however, the color category does not sync in the Outlook Web Application when I open the group calendar. All my events in the Outlook Web Application group calendar are grey. The Outlook Web Application only shows the original six categorizes. Is there a way that the color categories that show on the Outlook Desktop Group Calendar will also show when opening the Outlook Web App Group Calendar. The color categorizes sync for my personal calendar, but they do not show up in my group calendar. Is there a way to sync the color categories for the group calendar.

To get this feature more quickly, I searched there on the official feedback portal and noticed that a similar idea had been posted and the Outlook team had marked the project as "we are considering this". Many features of our current products are designed and upgraded based on customers’ feedback. You can also make suggestions on that website and hope Microsoft will notice this in the future.
Thank you for your understanding and support!
Hope this helps!
