Notting Hill Carnival is the biggest carnival of its kind in Europe.

The street festival has been held in the Notting Hill area of London since 1966 and started as a local carnival celebrating the West Indian inhabitance of the area. 

Notting Hill Carnival is now the biggest festival of its kind in Europe with more than a million visitors over the August bank holiday weekend.

The carnival is not only a feast for the eyes and ears with brightly coloured costumes and traditional steel drum bands but also a feast for the taste buds as there are hundreds of Caribbean food stalls to sample from.

The carnival procession starts from 9am on both Sunday and Monday and aims to complete the carnival route by 9pm. Sunday's carnival is aimed at children where as the procession on the Monday is more aimed for adults.
