Carnaval del Pueblo is the largest Latin American out-door event in the U.K. supported by the London Mayor's Office and the London Borough of Southwark.

This is the event of the year for all Latinos and lovers of their culture. Londoners of all communities come together and share this intense cultural experience. Bonds are explored and discovered, reinforcing this community’s integrated part in the capital’s common cultural heritage.

The carnival commenced with a colourful float procession and parade which displayed the vibrant costumes and dances inspired on the famous carnivals of Rio de Janeiro, Colombia, Bolivia and El Salvador.

The parade route happened to pass my street and I managed to snap some pics from my room to share. Enjoy!
