Canada's largest pizza festival is underway and several Vancouver restaurants are participating.

La Pizza Week is back for its fourth edition, allowing restaurants around Canada to put a unique spin on a pizza. The public then votes on their favourite creations.

Over 500 restaurants across the country are taking part in this festival and eight of those are right here in Vancouver.

La Pizza Week runs from May 1 until May 7 so make sure you go check out the participating restaurants to see which one has the most delicious 'za!

In Vancouver, Pi Co. Pizza's limited edition pizza is called the Camden Special and comes with Neopolitan dough, California tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, roasted garlic, spinach and chorizo.

At Papa's Gourmet Pizza, you can try the Prime Rib Pizza which is topped with in-house pizza sauce, onions, Saputo cheese, red peppers and 20-hour house-braised beef.

CAVU Kitchen Bar has taken a burger and fries combo and turned it into pizza. The American Cheezus has beef burger bites, American cheese, zesty spiced tomato ragu and crispy parmesan garlic fries. It's also topped with a top-secret sauce.

Casa Mia Cucina, Firecrust Pizzeria, Famoso Neopolitan Pizzeria, Pacifico Pizzeria & Ristorante and Uncle Fatih's Pizza are also participating in La Pizza Week.

Once you finish trying these pizzas, you're encouraged to vote for your favourite on the La Pizza Week website for YUM points. You can also gain points by engaging with the festival on social media and making a transaction on the festival website.

The YUM points can be redeemed for more delicious pizza around the city.

Enjoy!
