THE NOTTING HILL CARNIVAL
By Tamsin Lucas
You can enjoy the Notting Hill Carnival in London every August. Local people celebrate Caribbean culture on this festival. There are big parades in the streets. There's also Caribbean food. People wear colourful costumes. They also play music and dance. It's noisy, but it's also friendly. I don't usually wear a costume, but I always watch the parades and dances. I like this celebration because it's a lot of fun.
