Pizza Nova has been announced as the Official Pizza of Rogers Stadium in Toronto and is slated to offer spectators with access to premium quality fare on their next visit.
The partnership is built on a shared focus on creating unforgettable experiences and will see Pizza Nova offering slices and dipping sauces from two locations at the outdoor concern venue at YZD in North York. The partnership comes as a logical one given Pizza Nova's deep roots in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) and their reputation for high-quality fare.
President of Pizza Nova Domenic Primucci spoke on the brand being named the Official Pizza of Rogers Stadium saying, "We believe great experiences deserve great food. Live music brings people together in a powerful way, and we saw an opportunity to elevate what fans can expect when attending a show at Rogers Stadium. We’re proud to bring our authentic pizza experience to one of Toronto’s premier entertainment venues.”
