In the Event details, on the right side, there's a "People" header.
Under this, there's a text box with "Invite Someone" by default in the box. If you start typing a contact here (assuming your contacts are linked to your account), it will auto-populate and you can choose contact(s) to add.
That's it, send it, and your invitees will get the same calendar item...

Is anybody else having the issue where the "invite Somoeone" text box is simply not there??

Are you using an account that supports the standard IMAP protocols? An easy example is hotmail, but gmail and many others support this too.
If your email provider doesn't implement or expose all of these, I suspect the calendar item simply won't show the functionality.
It's easy to test, add a hotmail or outlook.com account, and see if you can invite someone from that calendar...

Same here on my Lumia 950. On the people tab there is no "invite someone" field. However, I use my MS account (outlook email) and on Windows 10 desktop version this "invite" field is working.
Any news about this?

@pgrey - This worked perfectly fine before in 8.1. The problem is in 10, not in imap etc etc. This is an important feature and should be fixed by MS. Pointless having to go into Desktop diaries to then invite people. From a business perspective this is a huge ommission to a great upgrade.
