Several fairs took over San Francisco streets this weekend. But perhaps none was more vibrant than the Festa Italiana, put on by the San Francisco Italian Athletic Club. The event was held on Stockton Street, between Union and Filbert. The festival featured live music, including a symphony of accordions and multiple appearances by well-known musician and record producer Steve Albini.
Other highlights included a pizza toss by 13-time world champion Tony Gemignani, who owns Tony’s Pizza Napoletana in North Beach. Beverages did flow, which organizers said it was a great sign about attendance and community involvement.
