Notting Hill Carnival: Children’s Day
The Sunday is the family day and the one to bring anyone under ten to. Same route, same sound systems, a fraction of the crush. Free, and the buses stop running near it early.
Monday

Seasonal Free
Notting Hill Carnival: Monday parade
The main day, two million people, and the last of the sound systems off at seven. Walk in from Shepherd's Bush or Paddington: the stations inside the route are exit only or shut.
