Entries for the 2024 National Pizza Awards open on Monday 17 June.
This event is open to chefs from across the restaurant, quick service, pubs, bars and hotels industries – giving pizza professionals the chance to showcase their perfect pizza to the trade.
The 16 finalists compete in a series of challenges, starting with cooking their signature pizza for industry judges, before creating a technical pizza made up from a specific selection of ingredients from the event sponsors. Competitors will also take part in a vegan round.
In 2023, Zerodegrees, which has sister venues in Blackheath, Cardiff and Reading, won the event with a signature dish called the ‘Cinghiale’, featuring fior di latte cheese, wild boar salami, ‘Nduja, roquito pepper, parmesan, tomato sauce and fresh basil.
