The Notting Hill Carnival, Europe’s biggest street festival is an annual grand event that has been held every year since 1965 on the streets of Notting Hill, London, UK in the month of August. It is led by members of the West Indian community, particularly the Trinidadian and Tobagonian British population or Trinis;, many of whom have lived in the area since the 1950s.

 

The carnival attracted around one million people last year, making it one of the largest street festivals in the world. More: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notting_Hill_Carnival
