Qualifying round 1 will take place at Festa Italiana!
HOW IT WORKS
Each contestant gets a whole pound of cooked pasta smothered in our mouthwatering homemade herb marinara sauce—plus a fork (but hey, hands are fair game too!). We’re holding three qualifying rounds, and then the top 4 from each will battle it out in the Championship. 1st-3rd place win check prizes.
Feeling spontaneous? We’re also picking two walk-up contestants who sign up the day of the Fall Festival near the stage at Breidert Green—first come, first served!
