Ubuntu 20.04 LTS enters ESM

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS Focal Fossa was released on April 23rd, 2020, to give you an improved desktop experience. Since then, newer versions of Ubuntu, including Ubuntu 25.04 Plucky Puffin, were released to further improve the desktop environment and to enhance user experience.

We are sad to announce that Ubuntu 20.04 LTS Focal Fossa has reached the end of standard support, which means that there will be no more package updates to be accepted to the main Ubuntu 20.04 package archives. This happened as of May 29th, 2025, when it was announced a month ago that this was the final date.

Canonical has started the Extended Security Maintenance (ESM) program for Ubuntu 20.04 Focal Fossa by extending the support date for security updates up to April 2030, further enhanced with the legacy support that spans two more years, which means April 2032. You can check the release cycle here.

In order to benefit from extra 5 years of security maintenance support, you’ll have to have a Ubuntu Pro subscription tied to your Ubuntu One account that your computer uses.

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS extended security maintenance begins soon

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS Focal Fossa was released on April 23rd, 2020. The official release cycle policy has offered support for this version of Ubuntu from April 2020, and will continue to be offered under the main support policy until May 2025.

Starting May 29th, 2025, the extended security maintenance will start, just like how all LTS releases end their main support that lasts for five years. All LTS releases starting from Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahr will have three support durations, just like how it’s scheduled for Ubuntu 20.04 LTS:

• LTS standard security maintenance for Ubuntu Main: April 23rd, 2020 – May 29th, 2025
• Expanded Security Maintenance: May 29th, 2025 – April 2030
• LTS Expanded Security Maintenance (ESM) for Ubuntu Universe: April 23rd, 2020 – April 2030
• Legacy support: April 2030 – April 2032

However, ESM support requires you to have the Ubuntu Pro subscription under your Ubuntu One account. You can find the announcement below:

Ubuntu 25.04 Plucky Puffin will be released today!
