Where to go?

Notting Hill Carnival began in 1964 and is Europe's biggest street festival with around 2 million people visiting the 2 day event (and that's not including the 40,000 volunteers and 9,000 police officers!)
The Carnival itself is across Sunday and Monday but there are countless warm up and after parties across London (from Thursday to Monday night) if the 2 day event just isn't enough for you.
Where to eat?
If attending the Carnival then you'll be spoilt for choice of what to eat. The Carnival boasts around 300 food stalls which collectively serves five tons of chicken, 30,000 corn on the cobs and one ton of rice and peas... So when it comes to where to eat, this one is down to you!
Again, you needn't look far to find somewhere to quench your thirst at the Carnival. Around five million hot and cold drinks are served over the 2 days, including 25,000 bottles of rum and 70,000 litres of carrot juice!
Generally though, there are only 2 things you should drink at Notting Hill Carnival: Red Strip from a can and Punch from a plastic cup!
Remember, however you're travelling to and from Notting Hill this weekend, make sure you plan ahead as there will be a lot of closures. You can look here on the TFL website for more details.
