It&#8217;s Adults Day at Notting Hill Carnival which means the streets of west London will soon be filled with music, dancing and vibrant costumes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The festival is a joyous celebration of Caribbean arts and culture. It attracts up to two million people each year &#8211; making it the largest street party in Europe. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Sunday&#8217;s children&#8217;s parade was awash with brightly coloured costumes &#8211; jewels, glittery wings, belts and headdresses were on full display.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">But today is just for adults. A parade full of fabulous floats and performers will mark the start of Monday&#8217;s festivities at 10:30 BST. There will also be a 72-second silence at 15:00 to remember those who died in the Grenfell Tower fire.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">You&#8217;ll be able to follow along, wherever you are, by clicking Watch live at the top of this page from 12:00.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Carnival brings joyous celebration to streets of Londonpublished at 10:18 British Summer Time 10:18 BST Matt SpiveyLive page&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":372081,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7757],"tags":[748,393,4884,257,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-372080","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-london","8":"tag-britain","9":"tag-england","10":"tag-great-britain","11":"tag-london","12":"tag-uk","13":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115088916798307890","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/372080","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=372080"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/372080\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/372081"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=372080"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=372080"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=372080"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
