victory feast

Winner's celebratory meal

A victory feast is a celebratory meal held after winning a battle, competition, or achieving a significant goal.

The term evokes images of triumphant warriors gathering to eat and drink after conquest, though it applies equally to modern celebrations: The team held a victory feast at the coach's house after the championship.
