promotion party

Career milestone gathering

A promotion party is a celebration held to honor someone's advancement to a higher position, typically at work or in the military.

The promoted person is usually the guest of honor: We're throwing a promotion party for Sarah—she just made partner.

The term can also refer to a marketing event where a company promotes a product or brand.
