Shop Window Competition

Shop Window Trophy

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.
