International Italian Pizza Day

Since 2018, the 17th of January is the International Italian Pizza Day.

In reality, in Campania, Pizza Day has been celebrated for a little longer. Its origins are linked to St. Antonio, traditionally associated with the element of fire. In fact, according to one of the many legends associated with his cult, the hermit descended into hell to snatch the souls of sinners from their eternal condemnation, fighting against the devil and subsequently suffering painful sores similar to burns.
