IT HAS been a day to remember for Junior Up Helly Aa guizer jarl Fin Hatrick.

Portraying King Magnus VI of Norway, Magnus “Lagabøte” Haakonsson, the youngster has been leading his squad around Lerwick through various visits and engagements.

Thanks to Austin Taylor for the selection of photos below from the Junior Up Helly Aa festivities.

The junior torch-lit procession is due to kick off at 5.30pm, with the event also set to be broadcast live through the Junior Up Helly Aa Facebook page.

A total of 125 young guizers are expected to participate.
