bacchanalian
Drunkenly, riotously festive
Bacchanalian describes wild, drunken revelry—the kind of unrestrained celebration associated with Bacchus, the Roman god of wine.
A bacchanalian party involves excessive drinking and uninhibited behavior.
The word carries connotations of abandon and excess beyond ordinary merrymaking: The wedding reception devolved into a bacchanalian affair.
