About this event
Bank holiday Monday is Carnival at full volume: the Adults Parade in its most elaborate costume, static sound systems stacked along the residential streets, and the judging zone where bands compete for the year's titles. Caribbean food stalls run the length of the route. Expect enormous crowds, and work out your station exit before you arrive rather than after.
Why we picked it
The peak day of Europe's biggest Caribbean celebration, free on the street.
Free entry
Official Notting Hill Carnival site confirms Monday is free to all attendees.
