Personal comments
Well, If you are going to Liège, you can not lost the "City Parade". City Parade is a tecno/house festival on the streets during one sunday in september, It´s amazing. You can go to the zone of "Le carré" to go out at night. In addition there are many places to take a cafe or the famous Belgium beers!
