The sun is shining for the second and final day of this year’s Notting Hill Carnival.
Bright smiles, detailed costumes and plenty of dancing were seen as the Children’s Day Parade on Saturday wound its way through W10.
Organisers, who billed the carnival as “the greatest community-l/{@ed event on the planet," said of the children’s parade: “It’s an undeniable joy to see the next generation carrying the carnival baton - dancing in the streets wearing their carefully crafted costumes."
Attendees also paid tribute to the 72 people who died in the Grenfell Tower fire, in a nearby block of flats in North Kensington in June 2017, with a 72-second silence which began at 3pm.
More than two million people are set to take part over the weekend as the carnival marks two landmark anniversaries - the docking of the Empire Windrush 75 years ago and the introduction of sound systems to the parade 50 years ago.
The carnival, Europe’s biggest street party, helps celebrate Caribbean culture and history.
