UP HALLEY AA

On the occasion of Up Helly Aa, teams of about a thousand men, wrapped in a vast, wonderful range of Viking clothes, pour into the dark streets of the Shetland capital. At the stroke of 19.30 the ringing of the bells announces the beginning of the event: the torches are on fire, and the surprising, dazzling procession,
winding half a mile aft of the Guizer Jarl, it lights up with pride.
The Guizer, a metaphor for Viking prisons, will culminate with a sudden bonfire, fed by the thousands of torches thrown by squads.
