revellers
Celebrants having fun
Revellers are people engaged in lively, often noisy celebration—drinking, dancing, and general merrymaking.
The word typically describes groups enjoying themselves at parties, festivals, or nighttime gatherings: Revellers spilled out of the bars at closing time.
The spelling revelers is standard in American English.
