Abstract
This article summarizes the talk given at the LCWS 2021 conference on the status and news of the WHIZARD Monte Carlo event generator. We presented its features relevant for the physics program of future lepton and especially linear colliders as well as recent developments towards including NLO perturbative corrections and a UFO interface to study models beyond the Standard Model. It takes as reference the version 3.0.0 released in August 2020 and additionally discusses the developments that will be included in the next major version 3.0.0 to be released in April 2021.
