Hi,

Does this issue happen with all users or a certain one?

Can you open the shared calendar from OWA?

If we try opening the shared calendar via Home tab > Open Calendar > Open Shared Calendar, will the shared calendar open correctly?

In addition, please double-check if the permission is granted correctly. We can try removing the permission and then reassigning the permission again, and then test the issue again.

Please let me know the result.

Regards,

It happens to all.  Simulated the issue with another user and it fails.  

The workaround is click the Calendar first then afterwards go back to the email that contains the sharing of the calendar and click open this calendar.  and it works.

Strange behavior.
