Overview
Notting Hill Carnival is considered one of the best festivals worldwide in August. To celebrate the beautiful Caribbean communities of London, every year a vibrant carnival takes place bringing everyone together for a dance, live music.
Description
The Notting Hill Carnival has been an annual event since 1966 and continues to thrive each year. The carnival has over 1 million visitors sprawling the streets of London, making it the biggest street party in the UK.
The carnival travels around the area of west London with fluorescent dancers, masquerades, live music, and artistic floats. Exotic aromas waft through the air from the Caribbean street-food stalls with an array of spreads to tease the taste buds.
The carnival officially starts on a Saturday evening where a tropical steel band music competition will take place. Sunday is known as children’s day, although children are welcome throughout the festival, Sunday is particularly catered for children’s entertainment.
