In the next edition (6th and 7th November 2023), PizzaUp - the Italian symposium on contemporary Italian pizza now in its 18th edition - will propose an initial definition of the expressive styles that have emerged in the growth of this phenomenon, starting from the vision of Simone Padoan, who has been studying and developing thematically high-level pizza for over twenty years, and moving on to styles more linked to the culture of the territory, to aesthetic reinterpretation and, lastly, to a different balance between technique and the ethical-social meaning of pizza.

There are four styles identified in the light of the 10 points of the 2012 Manifesto and defining them will serve to clearly describe the choices available to the contemporary pizzeria today, beyond a definition used in many cases as a meaningless label. And the definition of the four styles of the contemporary pizzeria will also have the no less important technical implication of tracing back to each style the characteristics of the dough, toppings, image and service that transform each type of pizza from a simple dish into an experience with features that can be clearly understood by customers even before they eat.
