diamond jubilee
Sixty-year celebration
A diamond jubilee marks the 75th anniversary of a significant event, most often a monarch's reign: Queen Victoria's diamond jubilee in 1897 celebrated sixty years on the throne.
The term also applies to other milestone anniversaries—of institutions, organizations, or achievements.
Diamond suggests durability and lasting value, befitting such a lengthy span.
