Why can't i find breakout rooms in Teams?

Question

I subscribed to Microsoft 365 personal thinking i could test out breakout rooms but i can't see it.

Please which subscription has it and is it possible to indicate on your plan's description from now on.

It's kind of frustrating

Hi @Ayobami Jimoh

The breakout room feature is not available in the Microsoft 365 Personal or Family plans. To access breakout rooms, you would need a subscription that includes Microsoft Teams with full capabilities, such as Microsoft Teams Essentials (Microsoft Entra identity) or Microsoft 365 Business Basic. These subscriptions offer the ability to create and manage breakout rooms in Microsoft Teams meetings. If you require this feature for your meetings, you may consider upgrading to one of these plans that support breakout rooms.
