If you are a performer that wants to get involved in the Notting Hill Carnival there are a number of ways that you can do this.

It is important to note that the Notting Hill Carnival does not have one “Creative Director” or a team of people that book the acts and performers. Below we have listed the performance opportunities that may be available.

On the road/the parade
All of the bands on the road create their own themes and it is their decision as to who they have performing for them. Please contact them directly. Websites and social media links to all the bands can be found here.

Sound Systems
All sound systems book their own performers for Carnival weekend. Websites and social media links to them can be found here.

Live stages
The booking of the stages at Powis Square and Emslie Horniman Pleasance Park are, in general, run by sponsors of Notting Hill Carnival who programme their own line ups. Please contact office@nhcarnival.org with an email entitled STAGE PERFORMER and your email will be passed on to the relevant people.
