Elaborate celebration (4)

I believe the answer is:

fete

(Other definitions for fete that I've seen before include "Lavishly entertain; charity function" , "Charity garden party" , "Outdoor get-together" , "Outdoor fundraiser" , "Village festival" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times and the L.A. Times Daily.
