How do you copy a meeting in Outlook 2016 on Mac

I have Outlook for Mac [16.29]

I am able to [alt/option]+[click]+drag an appointment. The result is a copy of the appointment in a new location / timeslot...! Yay!

I must admit, I never tried this before - it could work in older versions.

This is also a workaround but maybe a little quicker.

In calendar view, select original meeting
Click on the Reply All button in the ribbon -> this creates an email to all attendees
Save this
In drafts folder select the email you just created
Click on the meeting button in the ribbon -> this creates a new meeting request for all attendees of the original with the same basic content (notable exception being the location)
Edit the meeting request as desired, perhaps replacing 'RE:' in the subject line with 'Follow-up', adding a time, location or online meeting details and any new text.
Send it once ready
