Notting Hill Carnival
Make a date for your diary, Notting Hill Carnival returns 29th-31st August 2026.
The hugely popular annual Notting Hill Carnival returns to West London from 29th-31st August 2026. It’s a long Bank holiday weekend celebrating Caribbean culture.
It’s unlike anything else in London. The air is filled with a mix of sounds, think steel-pan bands, mas parades, colourful costumes, and a fun-filled festival atmosphere. And, there’s plenty of Caribbean street food to sample.
If you’re staying at The Athenaeum Hotel & Residences, it’s absolutely worth visiting. Jump on the tube at Green Park into central London and then it’s about a 20-minute walk to the heart of the festival.
