1000 Free Slices of Pizza for World Pizza Day

Overview

Looking for a mid-week pick-me-up? Fancy filling your Thursday with the joy of pizza from some of Sydney's best pizzerias, free of charge? That's right, free pizza. The promotion comes courtesy of at-home pizza oven company Gozney, which is teaming up with Grifter Brewing Co to celebrate doughy rounds for World Pizza Day.

If you want to get your hands on some complimentary pizza, you'll have to head down to one of four local venues as they swing open their doors on Thursday, February 9. Two of the pizzerias featured on our list of Sydney's best pizza — Dimitri's and Pizza Madre — as well as Pizza Bros at Grifter's Marrickville brewery, will each be giving away full-sized pizzas to the first 50 customers that arrive on the day.

Similarly, brand-new pizza-by-the-slice outpost City Oltra will be making the day of 100 lucky customers, giving out free slices to the first 100 people through the doors of its new Eddy Avenue eatery.

As part of the festivities, Grifter is also unveiling its new pizza-inspired beer. Named Birra Quattro, the new brew is an Italian-style pilsner that celebrates the shared similarities behind the creation of both pizza and beer.

"The inspiration behind Birra Quattro started when my co-founder, Glenn and I started cooking pizzas at home with the Gozney Roccbox. We saw the similarities between pizza and beer, both being made from fermented cereal grains," says Grifter's co-Founder Matt King.

All of the participating venues will have Birra Quattro available for purchase if you'd like to pair your cheesy meal with a can of the new drop.

Rounding out the day's excitement is the chance to win a huge pizza-themed prize pack. Three punters will be served a 'lucky slice' which entitles them to everything they need for a home pizza party — a Gozney portable pizza oven and a slab of Grifter's Birra Quattro.

Dimitri's will be opening for lunch from 1pm, with the first 50 tables booked each getting a free pizza. City Oltra will be opening at 3pm with free slices for the first 100 customers, and both Pizza Madre and Pizza Bros will have free pizzas available on a first-come, first-served basis from 5pm.
