UK - A document of the experience of Carnival spectators, stall holders, masqueraders and bandleaders at this year's Notting Hill Carnival. They share their accounts of the 6:30 pm shut down of music on the Carnival route by the police, policing of the event and the governance of Carnival 2011. This document was sent to the Post Carnival Meeting organised by the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea's Community & Police Engagement Group (CPEG) on Monday 17th October in Ladbroke Grove. The meeting was organised to get feedback from residents, Carnival bands and the Carnival arenas.
