On Saturday August 24 a ticketed steel band competition will also take place.

It’s mostly in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, with the parade passing through Notting Hill (of course), plus Ladbroke Grove, Westbourne Park and Kensal Road.

Ahead of the weekend celebrations the council has drawn up a list of road closures throughout the festivities.

Most roads within the Carnival area will be closed from 6am on Sunday August 25 to 6am on Tuesday August 27.
