Pizza Week 2026

How It Works

Three simple steps: find a shop, order the Signature Slice, and rate your favorite. No tickets, no app, no reservations.

Your Pizza Week, step by step

Each participating shop crafts their own NYC Pizza Week Signature Slice — a one-of-a-kind creation made exclusively for the event. From September 20 to October 4, whether you're stopping in on a lunch break or mapping out a full borough crawl with friends, here's exactly how it works.

Find the shops

Use the NYC Pizza Week Slice Map or full shop list to discover every Signature Slice from every participating shop. These are the kind of places worth crossing the city for.

Order the Signature Slice

No reservation needed. Walk in and order the NYC Pizza Week Signature Slice: each shop's one-of-a-kind creation made exclusively for the event. These exist for two weeks only — once Pizza Week ends, they're gone for good.

Rate your slice

After each slice, submit your rating by text message. The more shops you visit, the more ratings you submit. At the end of two weeks, the shop with the highest-rated slice takes home the title of Best Slice of Pizza Week.
