The gala, which also paid tribute to John's 50-year writing partnership with Bernie Taupin, benefited both the Elton John AIDS Foundation and the Hammer Museum at University od California – Los Angeles.
"Some people don't like birthdays, they don't like celebrating, they don't want to know about them, and I've always enjoyed my birthday," John said.
"Seventy sounds so archaic, doesn't it? When I was growing up, 70 sounded like the end of the world. But things have changed — you're only as old as you feel inside," he added.
Ahead of the gala, John shared photographs from his family's private birthday celebrations at their home, where he was joined by his young sons Elijah and Zachary.
In one Instagram image, the three can be seen gathered around a chocolate cake. The singer also shared several photographs of the birthday cards he had received for his birthday.
