party time

Let's get celebrating

Party time is an exclamation announcing that fun or celebration is about to begin: The weekend starts now—party time!

It signals a shift from obligation to enjoyment, often with deliberate enthusiasm or irony.

Someone might declare party time when the boss leaves early or when facing an unpleasant task with mock excitement.
