crashers
Party gate jumpers
Crashers are people who show up uninvited—typically to parties, weddings, or other events: wedding crashers, party crashers.
The term implies boldness or social transgression, arriving somewhere you weren't asked and hoping to blend in.
Crashers may also refer to devices or activities that cause crashes, though the uninvited-guest sense dominates.
