Audio Events on LinkedIn will soon be no more. In an update published this week, LinkedIn announced that it would be combining Audio Events with LinkedIn Live, effectively shutting down the audio-only streaming feature.

LinkedIn users can still create audio-only streaming events via LinkedIn Live, but they will need to use third-party services to do so.

LinkedIn has confirmed it will be discontinuing Audio Events, its audio-only broadcast feature, in an effort to simplify its live event tools. From December 2, 2024, users will no longer be able to create standalone Audio Events on the platform.
