Party poster contains some mistakes (5)
I believe the answer is:
typos
'some mistakes' is the definition.
(typo is a kind of mistake)
'party poster contains' is the wordplay.
'contains' indicates a hidden word.
'TYPOS' can be found hidden inside 'party poster'.
(Other definitions for typos that I've seen before include "Mistakes" , "Printing errors" .)
I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
