Signature Events

The Chamber holds signature events each year that are powerful fundraising tools for both the Chamber and our affiliated community organizations, including South Side Community Council and South Side CAN.

South Side Soup contest

The South Side Soup Contest brings hundreds of soup lovers to the South Side to taste and vote on soup entries from many South Side restaurants. Guests are encouraged to bring a food item to donate to the Soup Contest Food Drive, which will be delivered to a local food pantry.  The event’s financial proceeds support the Chamber’s programs and community service organizations serving South Pittsburgh. 

Join us for the next soup contest on Saturday, February 27th 2027!
