[poli]

Does this me I crashed the gate? (an English term for going to a party uninvited)

Yes.

And I am not sure if the English translation also contemplates the meaning of not only uninvited but also the illegal entry used to get in. Not necessarily the main entrance.

[Perikles]

In BrE, you may only say 'I gatecrashed (the party etc.)'.

Okay, that reminds me Mecano... "yo allí me colé y en tu fiesta me colé..."
You can listen to it here,

For nostalgic people (80s) or if you want to practice Castilian Spanish... Mecano has definitely very nice, poetic and clear lyrics... :)

También saltarse el turno en la cola: queue/jump the queue (I think). :thinking: :)

[poli]

Yes, you can use jump the line/queue. It would be understood, and it will not sound strange.
