What better way to spend your weekend than sampling Beijing’s best pizza joints’ vegetarian or meat heavy creations slice-by-slice at the beijinger‘s 2015 Pizza Cup Launch Party. This year is going to be held over two days, October 17-18 from 11am-8pm at the Galaxy Soho. The launch party kicks off a three-week long of voting of the best pizza in town as per your taste buds and those of every other pizza lover in town.
There will be live performances to get the whole family dancing to the funky tunes by local school band, Leaves on Toast from Harrow International School Beijing, Violette and the Hunters (not affiliated with any school) and Dj set by Cousin Kippy. The Leaves on Toast will be performing on October 18 at 1-2pm.
