I would say A is the answer.

A is right

For B is sounds weird. It should be something like John hadn't planned to go to the party BUT he went anyway....

For C) the use of the word 'instead' is wrong. I'd only use instead if the sentence is like 'John hadn't planned to go to the party, instead he went to surf or something

For D) I'm pretty sure that's not how you use a semicolon
