Not unless @Clayfu brings the Astrea. You’d have to Uber and drink up your admission.

How many of them can meet their usual standards cooking in a different kitchen? Seems dubious to me.

pretty serious double decker pizza ovens being used. I bet some will even do Gonzos.

I went to the one last year and thought it was excellent. You’ll never eat $125 worth of pizza but if you like pizza, you can probably taste 12-15 slices (they cut 'em pretty small) which would be a lot cheaper than flying around the country, plus you can usually interact with some fairly famous pizzaiolos. It’s a well-executed event that’s one of the few worth paying for.

Are there any out-of-state pizzerias on this year’s list?

hm I don’t see any yet, but there were a few last year. maybe they’ll be added later

I’ve never understood why they don’t have spittoons at these kind of events. Still we have it penciled in to our schedules.

Surprisingly good review. Usually read about these festival disasters after, comparing it to “Fyre” fests
