Despite the fact that Liege is a Belgian city, its residents celebrate a holiday traditional for France - of course, this is about Bastille Day that is held on July 14 with street parties, fairs, fireworks, and theatrical performances. The venues are the central streets of the Belgian city. Those who arrived in Liege at the beginning of the month should first go to Parc Astrid, where they can join the Les Ardentes Festival. This is another interesting music event where genres range from rock to hip-hop so that everyone can find music to their liking.
