The party had been released

I had just arrived at the party when a friend of mine calls and says he needs to talk to me, so I left to meet him, which I didn't mind because the party was not what I had expected. It was very formal and quite frankly boring. But when I returned an hour later, the party had been released. Loud music was playing and people were dancing.

Is this grammatical? And is "released" a natural word here or would you go with another?
