Sunday is the family friendly day, which is typically calmer but still filled with crowds and exciting activities for children - including a children’s parade filled with a crowd of kids parading fabulous costumes! The Notting Hill carnival is free to download for a live GPS-tracked map showing all of the floats, food vendors, toilets, transport links and sound systems.
