Up-Helly-Aa Every year, Lerwick comes alive with Up-Helly-Aa. This annual winter celebration takes place in the streets of Shetland’s capital. Planned over the years, a torch procession of almost 1,000 men march with a traditional Norse galley to the burning site. Amidst singing and cheers, the torches are thrown into the galley and everyone stands back to watch it burns. The Lerwick Brass Band play The Up-Helly-Aa song and the Galley song. |
