gigglefest
Uncontrollable mirth session
A gigglefest is an extended bout of uncontrollable laughter, usually shared among friends: The sleepover turned into a gigglefest that kept the parents awake.
The word suggests contagious, giddy amusement rather than polite chuckling—the kind of laughter that feeds on itself and resists stopping.
