Not only Jews celebrate penticost christians do too.Anyway the reason we celbrate penticost is it's 50 days after Jesus died on the cross.
Jewish AnswerWe don't celebrate Pentecost. The holiday we observe is Shavuot, this holiday celebrates the anniversary of the day HaShem gave us the Torah. The two holidays fall around the same time of year.

∙ 8y agoPentecost is a Christian holiday that is not observed by Jews. It is a derivation of the Jewish tradition of Counting the Omer, leading to Shavuot. Shavuot is a Torah-festival 50 days after Passover (Leviticus ch.23, Deuteronomy ch.16), and celebrates the Giving of the Torah as well as the wheat harvest.
The name Pentecost comes from the Greek word for 50.
Shavuot and Pentecost are different names in different languages for an occasion that is celebrated completely differently in the two religions due to their differing beliefs.
