Ten harpies dancing in female celebrations (3,7)

I believe the answer is:

hen parties

'female celebrations' is the definition.

'ten harpies dancing' is the wordplay.
'dancing' is an anagram indicator.
'ten'+'harpies'='tenharpies'
'tenharpies' is an anagram of 'HEN-PARTIES'.

'in' acts as a link.

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
