conviviality
Jovial gathering spirit
Conviviality is the quality of being friendly, lively, and enjoyable in company—the warm atmosphere of good food, drink, and conversation shared among people who are happy to be together.
The word suggests festive sociability rather than mere politeness: The conviviality of the dinner party lasted well past midnight.
A convivial person or gathering puts others at ease and encourages merriment.
