Pizza Fest

Chicago's celebrated love affair with homegrown pizza -- be it thick or thin -- will be the main entrée at the city's first-ever "Pizza Fest" in the DePaul/Lincoln Park neighborhood.

In addition to pizza sold by the slice or whole pies, the inaugural event also features a stellar music lineup ... arts & crafts ... dough tossing ... best pizza contests ... wine tastings ... and sanctioned "Cornhole" (aka bean bag toss) tournaments sponsored by the American Cornhole Association.

One of the fest's highlights throughout the weekend will be acrobatic pizza dough tossing courtesy of the award-winning U.S. Pizza Team presented by Bolla Winery. Bolla will also be offering on-site wine tastings and cooking demonstrations.
