The unique pistachio festival returns to Berlin with international flair
Sweet and salty pistachio cannoli, ceviche with chopped pistachios, tacos and nachos with pistachio sauce, pistachio arancini, arrosticini with pistachio cream, samosa with pistachio sauce, pistachio babà, profiteroles, ice cream and granita… This and much more will be the offer of the Pistachio Street Food Festival coming back to Berlin after the success of the first edition in 2021, which attracted more than 4,000 visitors. The event, the only one in Germany dedicated exclusively to pistachio, is set to become an annual gathering for all lovers of this delicious ingredient. The date is again this year on Saturday 27th and Sunday 28th of August 2022 from 11 am to 10 pm at the Jules B-Part in the Park am Gleisdreieck. Over 15 stands will present salty and sweet pistachio specialities from all over the world. The entry fee is 3 € and contains a Dj-set for the whole event. Free entry for children under 12 and those who come to the festival in an entirely green outfit.
The event
The special feature of this second edition is its international touch: from Italy to Iran and Korea, from Peru to Mexico, the festival will gather exceptional specialities. For the first time under the True Italian label, the Pistachio Street Food Festival aims to highlight international cuisine and not just Italian specialities. A must-attend event for pistachio lovers from all over the world!
