We receive much support from the local residents and the vast majority make the most of their prime location and revel in the atmosphere either from their homes or out on the road with attendees and participants from all over the world.

However, we acknowledge that the event can cause unwanted disruption and it’s important to us to have dialogue with all in our community.

For any questions about how Notting Hill Carnival may effect you before, during or after the weekend we advise, depending on the borough you live in, that you visit RBKC's online hub here or Westminster Councils online hub here.

There are also Drop-In session that residents and local business owners can ask question directly to organisers. More information on those can be found here.

A booklet has been produced that can be downloaded from here. This is specifically for residents and will give an overview of what to expect and a list of all services available to assist in making sure there is as little disruption as possible.
