If you have been trying to get your hands on a Ceres Pizza slice in NYC, your next opportunity may be considerably easier than standing outside the restaurant and hoping for a pizza miracle.
Ceres Pizza is coming to EEEEEATSCON New York, taking place October 3 and 4 at Hudson River Park’s Pier 76. The buzzy Little Italy pizzeria is among the restaurants participating in this year’s food festival—and that is big news for anyone who knows just how difficult it can be to score Ceres pizza.
Ceres has become one of New York City’s hottest pizza spots, thanks in part to its ultra-thin sourdough pies and a very enthusiastic 9.2 rating from pizza critic Dave Portnoy. The demand became so intense that Ceres eventually stopped selling individual slices at its restaurant and shifted its focus to whole pies.
That makes EEEEATSCON NYC 2026 particularly exciting: festival-goers will have a chance to try Ceres without having to commit to an entire pie or navigate the restaurant’s famously limited production.
The event runs Saturday, October 3 and Sunday, October 4 at Pier 76, with Ceres Pizza listed among the participating restaurants. General admission tickets are currently $25 for eligible Chase cardholders, while select Chase Sapphire and JPMorgan Reserve cardmembers can purchase early-access tickets for 11 a.m., giving them an hour-long head start before general admission begins at noon.
And if Ceres is your primary target, that early entry could be particularly valuable. When a restaurant has developed a reputation for selling out and making diners work for their pizza, arriving early isn’t exactly a radical strategy.
So mark the calendar, charge your phone, and prepare your appetite. A rare Ceres Pizza slice at EEEEEATSCON NYC could be one of the weekend’s hottest bites—and this time, you don’t need to buy an entire pie to get in on the action.
