A joyful, family-friendly celebration featuring pizza vendors from around Nashville, music, and activities for all ages.About this Event
Join us at Nashville PBS (WNPT) for a pizza festival supporting A Slice of the Community, our public affairs series hosted by Jerome Moore. This ticketed event will bring Nashville residents together for an afternoon of great food, connection, and entertainment.
Guests can enjoy pizza samples from several vendors from Nashville and beyond, a live DJ, Nashville SC’s Tempo the Coyote, and a dedicated kids’ area. This fun, welcoming festival celebrates community and the vital role of public media in ensuring our neighbors see and hear themselves reflected through local stories.
Children 4 and younger admitted free.
Come hungry, bring the kids, and spend the day building community, one slice at a time. Pizza Festival T-shirts are available (see ticket add-on options to purchase)!
