Copyright © 2009 - 2023 Up Helly Aa Committee
Shop Window Competition
The annual Up Helly Aa shop window competition is run in January where local businesses are invited to decorate their shop windows in a theme related to or representing Up Helly Aa.
The competition is judged each year by the Guizer Jarl. A combination of originality, humour and overall appearance are all taken into account!
The prestigious trophy is a representation of a Guizer Jarl. It has been meticulously crafted from a single block of wood, a true piece of art.
