First, Pentecost (aka Shavuot or the Feast of Weeks) is one of the 3 annual pilgrimage festivals of the Jewish year. Observance of Shavuot is included in the festival calendars in the Torah. Every adult Jew was expected to travel to Jerusalem on each of these festivals. The story of Pentecost in Acts occurs as the disciples are taking part in this pilgrimage, so they were already celebrating it before the events remembered in Acts. You could say it's worth celebrating because it's commanded to celebrate it, or you could say that it's worth celebrating because of the impact it had on the early Church, changing the mission from preaching only to the Jewish community to preaching to the whole world.
