11th annual downtown Phoenix pizza festival with live music, food vendors, craft beer, wine, and a kids zone at Margaret T. Hance Park.
The Phoenix Pizza Festival returns to Margaret T. Hance Park on Saturday, November 14 and Sunday, November 15, 2026. It's the 11th year for the festival, which PHX Fest puts on in downtown Phoenix, bringing local pizza makers together for a single weekend. The draw is pretty straightforward: every style of pizza you can think of served on the go, with Italian foods and desserts alongside. There's also local craft beer and wine to wash it down.
Beyond the pizza, the festival fills out with a live music stage, a vendor market, and a kids zone, so it's more of a full-day thing than a quick stop. It's also a small-dog-friendly event—dogs under 25 lbs are welcome as long as they're on a leash. The festival runs rain or shine, so the weather won't keep it from happening.
There's a community side to it, too. Downtown Phoenix Inc. is the charity partner this year, a community organization that works on the continued revitalization of the city center. If you're planning to go, keep in mind that tickets are sold online in advance only and aren't available at the gate, so you'll want to get yours sorted before you head downtown.
