How to get to Notting Hill Carnival 2025
Briefly

Notting Hill Carnival 2025 will attract very large crowds across the August bank holiday weekend, causing significant pressure on public transport. The Central line toward Notting Hill will be extremely busy; taking the tube or Elizabeth line to Paddington and walking about 20 minutes is recommended. Travellers from east London can use Liverpool Street then the Elizabeth line to Paddington; west London visitors can use Shepherd's Bush and walk. Several nearby stations will be closed or operate exit-only during peak hours, with some temporary full closures and altered District and Circle line stops. Expect road closures and altered bus services.
The August bank holiday weekend is upon us, and that means one thing - London's mightiest, most colourful street party is back. Notting Hill Carnival 2025 will see million (yes, millions) of partiers flocking to west London donning feathers, big bold sequins and tributes to their cultures, ready to dance the day away. Public transport will inevitably be packed on Sunday and Monday as people make their way to the event.
The following stations around Notting Hill will be closed or partly closed on Sunday and Monday: Ladbroke Grove: Closed all day Latimer Road: Could temporarily close for short periods and will fully shut at 11.30pm Notting Hill Gate: Exit only from 11am to 6pm and District and Circle line trains won't stop Westbourne Park: Exit only from 11am Holland Park: Exit only from 11am to 3pm and closes at 3pm
