Would you be mad at him or jealous?

The company where my partner works organized a summer party. They also allowed external guests to get tickets. Before the event, he mentioned that he didn't really want to take me along because there would only be people from work there. However, he also told me that his former intern would be attending (with him) because he had put her on the guest list. She is starting to work full-time at the company again in a few weeks.

They took a photo together at the event.

Afterwards, my boyfriend told me that there were hardly any colleagues from work there, but also many external guests and curious onlookers. Would you be upset and jealous? Somehow, I feel like he wanted to go there alone with the intern.

Or do you think I'm overreacting? My boyfriend is in his early 30s, and she is in her mid-20s.

I think if other people from work weren't taking their partners then it doesn't seem out of the ordinary. I wouldn't want to bring my partner if colleagues weren't bringing theirs, but might well invite an old colleague who was returning if I thought it would be a nice re-introduction for them

I agree with this actually.
