Napoli

From the 17th to the 25th of June, Caputo Napoli Pizza Village will open a big window onto the world of the Neapolitan pizza of excellence. This year too, Ciao will be the official tomato of the event and of the World Pizza Maker Championship, which will declare the best pizza artisan of 2017.

Only a few hours are left before the opening of the pizza village: 9 days of dough and condiments will kick off the summer of great Neapolitan gastronomy by highlighting the great importance that techniques and attention to the quality of the ingredients have for a dish like the Neapolitan pizza, a model followed an imitated everywhere, but with unique features.

Who will be the world champion among the APN pizza makers and what specialties the 50 participating Neapolitan pizzerias will give us on beautiful backdrop of Lungomare Caracciolo to celebrate the most famous world kermesse fully dedicated to the White Art?

We will find out very soon, as only 3 days are left before the official opening of the Caputo Napoli Pizza Village 2017: the ribbon-cutting will be on Saturday, 17th June.

A format unchanged, but with an even more rapid pace and a renewed attention to fried pizza and to the women’s participation to the cream of the crop of the Neapolitan pizza maker association (Associazione Napoletana Pizzaioli – APN)

50 the pizzerias and hundreds the artisans that will come to the pizza stadium on Lungomare Caracciolo from all over the world to participate to the 16th Caputo Trophy.

Of all the 100,000 specialties that are expected to be baked during the 9 days of the event, the official tomato will be the one of Ciao, renewing again the partnership with the world’s most important event dedicated to the pizza of excellence.

We will tell you the art, the competing specialties and the flavors, the colors and the faces of that which in the end is above all a celebration great as the heart of Naples, which welcomes anyone around its popular table made of simple excellence!

Come to party with us!
