Notting Hill Carnival is Europe's largest street festival, transforming the streets of West London into a vibrant celebration of Caribbean culture every August bank holiday weekend. Launched in 1966 in the heart of Notting Hill, it draws over two million revellers each year for three days of spectacular masquerade parades, pulsating steel pan competitions, soca and calypso music, and the rich culinary traditions of the Caribbean diaspora.
Held over the last weekend of August, the carnival culminates on bank holiday Monday with the main adult parade - a riot of colour, rhythm, and community spirit that has made it one of the most iconic cultural events in the world. Count down the days until Notting Hill Carnival with our live countdown timer.
