1 story · 1 council

Kensington and Chelsea's Licensing Sub-Committee considered an objection to alcohol sales for the NHC 2025 Jamaican Food Exhibition in August 2025.

In August 2025, a Kensington and Chelsea Licensing Sub-Committee considered an objection to a Temporary Event Notice (TEN) for the NHC 2025 Jamaican Food Exhibition. This proposed event sought permission to sell alcohol during the Notting Hill Carnival, with the sub-committee reviewing how the activity would support licensing objectives.

The exhibition was planned for 119 Ladbroke Grove, London W11 1PG, as a temporary event for the sale of Jamaican food and alcohol during the Notting Hill Carnival 2025. The council's Statement of Licensing Policy recommends that TENs are submitted at least 12 weeks in advance, especially for applications within the Carnival 'footprint'.
