Celebrate the Holidays with Unlimited Meetings from Zoom




COVID-19 has changed how we live, work, and celebrate in 2020, and like everything else this year, the holiday season doesn’t look the same. As a token of appreciation to our users during an extraordinary time, we’re removing the 40-minute limit on free Zoom accounts for all meetings globally for several upcoming special occasions.

Whether coming together on the final day of Hanukkah, celebrating Christmas, ringing in the New Year, or marking the last days of Kwanzaa, those connecting with friends and family won’t get cut short.

Here are the dates and times for unlimited meetings:

  • 10 a.m. ET Thursday, Dec. 17, to 6 a.m. ET Saturday, Dec. 19

  • 10 a.m. ET Wednesday, Dec. 23, to 6 a.m. ET Saturday, Dec. 26

  • 10 a.m. ET on Wednesday, Dec. 30, to 6 a.m. ET on Saturday, Jan. 2

What do I need to do?

You don’t need to do anything to remove the limit — it will be automatically lifted during these designated times.

Here are a few actions you can take to ensure you have a wonderful virtual get-together with loved ones!

  • Protect your session from uninvited guests by requiring a meeting passcode to join and enabling Waiting Rooms – and don’t share your meeting IDs on social media or other public forums

  • Learn how to get started on Zoom with basic tips and answers to frequently asked questions

  • Download festive virtual backgrounds and have fun with our video filters!

  • Get creative with how you Zoom — check out some ideas for hosting virtual parties and tips for connecting with family and friends

Don’t forget to update your Zoom client to ensure you have all the latest product and security features, or sign up for a free account to schedule and host meetings.

We’re proud to have been a part of your lives in 2020 and wish everyone a happy and healthy holiday season!
