Register your pie for
Cville Pie Fest 2023
Please register your pie before May 31st June 8th if you want to enter the 2023 Pie Fest.
What is a valid pie?
You may enter a round pie baked in at least a 9" round pan or you may make hand pies.
All pies must have either a crumb or a pastry crust.
You do not need to use an "original" recipe; recipes from books, restaurants, grandmothers, and so on are all encouraged. Pie Fest is a competition of skill in baking and ingredient selection, not of recipe creation.
Unfortunately, we CANNOT take pies that need refrigeration, such as cream, chiffon, ice cream, or other frozen pies.
You may enter as many pies as you want.
Read the rest of the rules and judging parameters.
Bakers must bring TWO of their pies to WTJU 91.1 FM at 2244 Ivy Road the morning of June 10th.
One of these pies will be used for judging. The other is to be auctioned off and/or sold to benefit the mission of WTJU: to enrich the culture of Virginia and extend the educational mission of UVA by bringing together diverse individuals and communities through exceptional music and conversation.
