Pizza Day

🍕 Pizza Day — a laid-back holiday for everyone who believes that “one more slice” is a love language. Born in Naples and now loved worldwide, pizza has gone from simple street food to a global comfort icon. Fun fact: in 2017 UNESCO added the art of Neapolitan pizza making to the list of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

Ideas for celebrating & gifts:

  • Host a “world tour of pizza” night: each guest brings or designs a pizza inspired by a different country or region.
  • Great gifts for pizza fans: a baking stone or steel, a sharp pizza cutter, a wooden peel, or a set of chili oils and herb mixes.
  • For beginners: a pizza starter kit with dough mix, tomato sauce, mozzarella and a simple step-by-step recipe card.
  • For kids: mini personal pizzas they can decorate themselves, chef hats, or a pizza-themed board game or puzzle.

How to celebrate this day:

  • Set up a “build-your-own pizza bar” at home with different sauces, cheeses, veggies and toppings — and let everyone assemble their dream slice.
  • Try one “rule-breaking” pizza: white pizza without tomato sauce, dessert pizza with fruit and mascarpone, or an ultra-thin Roman-style sheet pan.
  • Vote for the best creation and give playful awards: “Most Unexpected Topping,” “Cheesiest Slice,” or “Prettiest Pizza.”
  • Share photos of your pizza feast with friends or on social media — and don’t forget the hashtag #PizzaDay.
