Regretfully, we have made the decision to cancel Hackney Carnival on Sunday to observe this period of national mourning
We’ll be looking at whether it's feasible to hold Carnival later this year, or if we can showcase the artists’ work in another way

Can you please offer us some compensation? . We have spent so much money on food which is prepared and ready to be cooked and drinks for hundreds of people. This will affect our small independent business massively.

Why not celebrate the Life of our Monarch for those that want too, I feel for those who will now lose money at a very difficult time. Surly it’s upto the people to choose.

That is a real shame. I feel it's wrong to collectively force everyone who had been looking forward to this for weeks and months into 24/7 mourning. We are all very sad, but that should not mean we should all be forced to abandon what little joy we find elsewhere. Especially kids

I would have thought it was a great event to hold as it celebrates everything and everyone!!

One, you need to have ALT text on this image, anyone with a screen reader won't know what is being said.
Two, you should rebrand the even, people mourn in different ways and taking this away from people is likely to make them more depressed.

People forget that they are in this country thanks to Queen. Before you attack me, I am from a minority group, my parents came to this country in 1991. Respect the culture.
