Up Helly Aa, Shetland, Scotland

Jan 30th - All Day

Up Helly Aa, Europe's largest fire festival, takes place in Lerwick, the capital of Shetland in Scotland, on the last Tuesday of January every year.

Up Helly aa involves a series of marches, visitations and parties and culminates in a torch-lit procession and the burning of a Viking longship. It is a spectacular celebration which dates back to the 1880s, but has its roots in the Scandinavian history of the island. There's nothing quite like it!
