rager

Out-of-control celebration

A rager is a wild, intense party—the kind with loud music, heavy drinking, and chaos that might draw noise complaints: We threw a rager while my parents were out of town.

The word can also describe someone prone to fits of anger, though this sense is less common than the party meaning.
