Pizza City Fest coming to West Loop this weekend
Pizza City Fest will bring nine styles of pizza, including deep dish and tavern style to Chicago's West Loop.

CHICAGO (WLS) -- Can you name all nine styles of pizza, that you can get in Chicago?

They'll all be featured this weekend at the first annual Pizza City Fest. It kicks off Saturday in the West Loop.

Nick Nitti of Forno Rosso, one of the featured pizzerias, joined ABC7 and brought with a portable pizza oven.

The nine styles are Deep, Stuffed, Tavern, Roman, Artisan, Neapolitan, Sicilian, Detroit and New York Slice.

Delicious & Different: Exploring Chicago pizza styles

Chicago has a lot more to offer than deep dish pizza. Pizza salad, double decker and pizza covered in pickles are just some of the delicious pies that are "outside the box."

Pizza City Fest is this Saturday and Sunday at Plumber's Hall on West Randolph.

40 Pizza Makers over two days in the parking lot. It runs noon to 9 p.m. both days.

Tickets are $55 for all-you-can-eat pizza. Kids under 10 are free.
