Comedians born in Liège
Belgium 🇧🇪
Liège spreads along the River Meuse in eastern Wallonia, a major French-speaking city with a fiercely independent character built over centuries as a prince-bishopric and later an industrial center of coal and steel. It is known for its folklore, hearty food and the sweet Liège waffle, all part of a warm, unpretentious local spirit.
Its busy nightlife and cultural scene make it a regular stop for touring French-language comedy. The comedians François Pirette and Nawell Madani were both born in Liège.
