Emmy Squared Pizza Brings Detroit-Style Pizza and Brooklyn Soul to Charlottesville

April 26 Grand Opening Party Includes Free Pizza for a Year for the First 25 Guests, Food Samples, Live Entertainment and Prizes

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va., April 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Emmy Squared Pizza is officially celebrating its arrival in Charlottesville with a community-wide grand opening on Saturday, April 26, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at its new location on Emmet Street. Guests can enjoy Detroit-style pizza, award-winning burgers, live art and entertainment, giveaways, and a full dose of Brooklyn-meets-Charlottesville spirit.

Kicking things off is a ribbon-cutting ceremony with the Charlottesville Chamber of Commerce, followed by a family-friendly celebration featuring food tastings, music, and raffle prizes. Local radio station Hot 101.9 will be on site with a live DJ, swag giveaways, and prize drawings throughout the event — including a grand prize MacBook, AirPods, free pizza cards, and EMILY cookbooks. Guests can also snap selfies with a live mural wall painting by a local artist, creating a perfect moment to mark the launch of Emmy Squared in C'Ville.

The first 25 guests in line will score free pizza for a year, redeemable as one pizza per month from Emmy Squared Pizza's most popular styles: the Colony, Classic, or Vodka.

Eventgoers can sample the brand's greatest hits, including its signature Detroit-style pizza, Mozz sticks, and quartered burger bites — all crafted with high-quality ingredients and made-from-scratch dough that rises for 24 hours. Featuring a square shape, fluffy focaccia-like dough, and cheesy "frico" crust, Emmy Squared bakes each pizza to perfection in custom-made metal trays dating back to the Motor City itself.

"The opening of our Charlottesville location marks an exciting chapter in the growth of the Emmy Squared brand," said Troy Tracy, CEO of Emmy Squared Pizza. "As we continue to expand into new markets, our focus remains on delivering the high-quality food and hospitality that have earned us a loyal following. We're proud to bring our Detroit-style crust and Brooklyn soul to Charlottesville and look forward to becoming part of the local community."

The Emmy Squared Pizza brand, which brings together the culinary traditions of Detroit-style pizza and Brooklyn creativity, has built a national following for its creative flavor combinations, elevated cocktails, bold flavors, and inventive culinary approach. Fan favorites include the Colony pizza topped with house-made red sauce, signature cheese blend, Ezzo pepperoni, pickled jalapeños, and drizzled with honey.
