Microsoft's description
Currently in a Teams Town hall, attendees cannot raise their hands and share their microphone and camera as they can in a meeting. With this new update, town halls organized by users with Teams Premium will allow attendees to raise their hand like they would in a standard Teams meeting. The ability to raise a hand can signal to organizers and presenters, who can then bring attendees on screen to allow them to share their camera and microphone.
