Over the August bank holiday weekend the roads around west London will be transformed by the Notting Hill Carnival
Roads throughout the area will be closed to make space for the massive procession, and traffic and public transport surrounding the area will be disrupted.Sainsbury’s Ladbroke Grove, W10 6HJ: “The word J’Ouvert stems from the French ‘Jour ouvert’ meaning ‘opening of the day’. It is tradition in the Caribbean to launch carnival just before sunrise, continuing into daybreak.
“J’Ouvert morning is one of Notting Hill Carnival’s best kept secrets. Droves of hardcore revellers converge onto the streets of Notting Hill in the very early hours of the morning to celebrate the opening of carnival, to dance and get messy. Expect to see colourful paints and powders in place of the mud and oil of Caribbean tradition, but the high energy and party pandemonium is universal.”Each year the carnival is opened by local residents and participants.
“If you haven’t bought a band costume feel free to wear your own , grab a whistle or a horn find a good position on the parade route and jump up and dance as the floats pass you by.”“Notting Hill Carnivals Sound System tradition is rooted in Jamaican culture and reggae music, at todays carnival you can hear everything from rare groove to house to samba.”Powis Square Stage – 12pm – 7pmThe carnival takes place in west London in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea.
