Following the success of the [Instagram](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/national-pepperoni-pizza-day)-friendly [Museum of Ice Cream](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ice-a-bagel), The Museum of Pizza is set to hit New York City this summer. With immersive installations and a slice of 'za included with every admission ticket, the new museum is sure to be a dream come true for pizza lovers.

The Museum of Pizza (also known as MoPi) is the brainchild of a youth-oriented media company called Nameless Network. According to museum founder Kareem Rahma, the idea for the project "started with this idea of pizza fetish," and the near universal love for the saucy dish. As a result, the promotional images and videos for the new museum are nearly NSFW.

With tickets already available for pre-sale,The Museum of Pizza is sure to fuel plenty of cheesy selfies this summer.
