Are you ready for the next Up Helly Aa? It is a famous fire festival in Lerwick, Scotland and it’s one of the most exciting festivals in the world. Every year, participants wear costumes and carry a Viking longship around the town at night before setting it on fire. Sounds fun, right?
The festival will take place on January 28th next year. Many people are busy planning for it and you will be able to see the preparations at a big exhibition soon. The exhibition will open to the public from May to September. You will see the Viking longship, participants’ costumes, and many photos of previous festivals.
If you go to Up Helly Aa next year, you will experience more than just a giant bonfire. There will be lots of music and other fun events on the days before and after the festival, so make sure you plan your trip to Lerwick around the festival to get the whole experience!
