What is SliceFest?

SliceFest started in 2012 as a way for hosts Slice Birmingham to thank the community for its support. Now in its the eighth year, SliceFest has morphed into a full-blown festival to celebrate music, local craft beer and the city’s best pizza.

Slicefest will take place in the Slice Pizza & Brewhouse parking lot and 29th Street South in Lakeview.

“We’re looking forward to another great year of combining the best of local music, food and drink at Slicefest. It’s not just Slice’s birthday party, it’s a party for the whole community and we can’t wait to announce all the great plans we have in store for this year.”

Music at SliceFest

SliceFest will continue in 2019 with a strong lineup of local and regional jazz-inspired musicians. The musical lineup for SliceFest will be released soon. Past acts include Big Gigantic, Original Wailers and Too Many Zooz.

As Jason Bajalieh, co-owner and co-founder of Slice Pizza & Brewhouse once said: it will be a “solid collaboration of festival to funk.” Sign. Me. Up.

Event proceeds will again benefit the SUKI Foundation. SliceFest has donated over $60,000 to Birmingham-based non-profits over the past seven years.
