A boast for the city of Naples, tell not only the institutions during the press conference on September 9, but the same absolutely record numbers that will accompany this ninth edition of the Naples Pizza Village.

It starts by saying that this event was recognized as the first Food Festival in the world in December 2018 in Las Vegas during The FestX Awards, and this helps to win new records especially in the incoming tourism market.
A huge recognition for the city of Naples, the result of the synergistic work of all those who have joined for the success of the event, widely deserved.

With over a million visitors last year, the event presents itself with new international channels of tourism, thanks to an agreement with United Airlines, a U.S. company among the first in the world and the confirmation of the existing one with Trenitalia for the arrival in Naples of Italian and foreign audiences.

This close connection between Naples and the world in terms of food began several years ago and continues to consolidate year after year. Just think that Napoli Pizza Village was the guest of honour in New York for the Columbus Day celebrations, where it will return next October as a protagonist, with the aim of growing and exporting the great art of the Neapolitan school of pizza, officially recognized as an intangible heritage of humanity by UNESCO in 2017.

In addition, to minimize the environmental impact, smog and problems of traffic congestion and parking, was replicated the device with AMN (Neapolitan Mobility Company), which provides parking at the entrance of Naples and a shuttle service by public transport to reach the event.

This edition will be characterized by conferences, debates, educational initiatives, with Pizza Class and Pizza Kid, but also competitive as the Pizza maker World Cup (16/18 weeks) or promotion as NPV D'Essai, are at the center of the organizational program.

The world's largest food experience will be staged, with over a kilometre ovens in a row from the historic Neapolitan pizzerias, which last year baked a pizza every 34 seconds. This is, however, the heart of the Napoli Pizza Village where the master pizza makers are the great protagonists of the planetary success achieved.
