The festival was originally held by Brae Junior High School, the first being held in 1970.Шаблон:Citation needed The school continued to hold the festival until 1979, and the remaining 'junior' festivals were held by parents and staff from the school.Шаблон:Citation needed The Senior and Junior festivals had a two-year overlap, the first Senior festival in 1981, the last Junior festival in 1982.Шаблон:Citation needed

Since the beginning of the senior festival, the Jarl's Squad lunch has taken place at various locations associated with Sullom Voe Terminal. It was held on board TEV Rangatira in 1981, at Firth Camp in 1982, at Sullom Voe & Brae Sailing Club in 1983, and Firth Camp again in 1984. In 1985 it was held in the Fraser Peterson Centre, the Sullom Voe Terminal canteen in 1986, the Fraser Peterson Centre again in 1987, and on board the accommodation rig Safe Lancia in 1988 and 1989. The lunch took place in the Fraser Peterson Centre every year between 1990 and 1997, and the Mid Brae Inn played host in 1998. It has been held in the Mossbank Community Hall with the Manager of Sullom Voe Terminal since 1999.[4]

The original Galley Shed was demolished in 2016, with the new shed officially opened in June 2018. The Galley Shed was opened by Harold Johnson, who was the first 'senior' Delting Up Helly Aa Guizer Jarl in 1981.[5]

Delting Up Helly Aa has been postponed several times in its history, once in 2007 following a death in the community,[6] and a number of times due to the Coronavirus pandemic. Originally rescheduled to take place at the end of October 2020, it was pushed back to March 2021,[7] then March 2022,[8] and again to March 2023.[9]
