Up Helly Aa: Europe’s Largest Fire Festival

Up Helly Aa, takes place in Lerwick, Shetland, on the last Tuesday in January every year. This FIRE FESTIVAL involves a series of marches and visitations, culminating in a torch-lit procession and the burning of a galley. This is followed by hours of performing and dancing in halls throughout Lerwick.  Sounds like a great time to us! Find out more here
