Reveling with friends

Partying is engaging in social celebration, typically involving drinking, dancing, or other revelry: We were out partying until 3 a.m.

The word covers everything from casual nights out to extended periods of hedonistic behavior.

Someone who's been partying hard has been indulging heavily, often with implications of excess.
