    The parade was good, but there were so many drunk people running around and doing crazy stuff in the morning. Do not take your kids. as an adult at some point I felt uncomfortable 😶

    Real highlight of the year. The music, dancing and costumes are amazing. Saturday is best for families.

    Get your arse up to Sancho Panza best sound stage by far. It's up the top end of Ladbroke Grove, do a right after the bridge and get to Southern Row, you may have to walk around as the Bill cut it off

    Don't worry if you cannot dance samba, just invest in some gin & vodka, and shake it ;)

    They definitely don't have any ideal what a carnival is. A few heavy tracks and drugs is not a carnival. 6 died this year!

    Not all jerk chicken are created the same - be wary of gimmicky food stalls with less than impressive food and touristy prices.

    Not nearly to a carnival. Just a bunch of drunken and pot smokers making a mess. 6 died this year. Not worth it.
