Bay Area Pizza Week — deals & new slices

Bay Area Pizza Week is underway, with 12 days of pizza specials running from Wednesday, April 22, through Sunday, May 3. (bayareapizzaweek.com) The 2026 event spans 11 counties: Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Monterey, Napa, San Benito, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz and Sonoma. The official restaurant list shows 85 participating locations. (bayareapizzaweek.com 1) (bayareapizzaweek.com 2) Restaurants are offering limited-time pies, slice deals and meal combos alongside their regular menus. Organizers say the event is also tied to a mobile app where diners can earn prizes for orders, drinks and other check-in tasks. (bayareapizzaweek.com) The promotion marks a regional expansion after separate North Bay, Santa Cruz and Silicon Valley pizza weeks ran in 2025. Press Banner reported that 128 restaurants took part in those earlier events last year. (pressbanner.com) That wider footprint means the event now stretches from Santa Cruz to Sonoma County instead of staying in a single subregion. Visit San Jose’s event listing describes it as a Bay Area and Central Coast promotion built around special pies and slices at special prices. (bayareapizzaweek.com) (sanjose.org) The lineup mixes neighborhood pizzerias with bigger local brands. The official list includes Tony’s Pizza Napoletana in San Francisco, A16 in San Francisco, Oakland and Napa, Square Pie Guys in Walnut Creek, Campbell and Palo Alto, and multiple Mary’s Pizza Shack locations in Sonoma County. (bayareapizzaweek.com) Some restaurants have posted exact offers. A16 says its three locations are serving a Pizza Week menu priced at $42 per person, plus a featured pizza offered at $28 from April 22 through May 3. (a16pizza.com) Organizers are also pushing the event through print guides and local media. The official site says April 22 editions of East Bay Express, Good Times Santa Cruz, Metro Silicon Valley, North Bay Bohemian and Pacific Sun carried event guides. (bayareapizzaweek.com) For diners, the practical part is simple: the deals are live now, the list is already posted, and the event runs through next Sunday, May 3. The official site is updating participating restaurants and specials as Pizza Week continues. (bayareapizzaweek.com 1) (bayareapizzaweek.com 2)
