Éric and Quentin, masters of ceremony for the 11th edition!

The Masters of Ceremonies for the opening and closing ceremonies of the 11th edition of the Liège International Comedy Film Festival are now known: Éric and Quentin! The two comedians will have the honor of inaugurating the first ceremonies at the festival’s new venue, the Palais des Congrès de Liège.

“Very happy to be the hosts of the Fifcl2026! Can’t wait to take part in this great celebration of cinema, for sure as we say in France!

Éric and Quentin

The public discovered Éric and Quentin in 2009 on Le Petit Journal, presented by Yann Barthès. Their offbeat humor and sense of the absurd quickly made an impression on viewers. In 2016, they followed Yann Barthès on TMC to join the new Quotidien adventure.

Their complicity extends beyond television: in April 2015, they appeared in the film Robin des Bois, la vraie histoire, alongside Patrick Timsit, Géraldine Nakache and Max Boublil, as well as in Stéphane Kazandjian’s Bad Buzz.

Currently on tour with their show Papa, pas Papa, in which they explore the question of parenthood with humor and tenderness, between opposing visions of fatherhood and exchanges with the public about love, children and the daily life of young parents, they will be stopping in Liège in November, to direct the opening and closing ceremonies of the 11th Liège International Comedy Film Festival with their masterful hands of humor!

Europe’s only festival dedicated to international comedies

For over 10 years, the Liège International Comedy Film Festival has been celebrating comedy in all its forms through a competition that is unique in Europe. The FIFCL is the only European festival devoted entirely to international comedies.

Each year, it welcomes world or Belgian premieres of films from all over the world: pure comedies, social comedies, romantic comedies, dramatic comedies, black comedies or musical comedies, presented as feature films, shorts or documentaries, in official competition, out of competition or in special screenings.

The competition is crowned by the award of the Golden and Crystal Bulls.

In addition to screenings, the festival also features meetings with cinema personalities, professional events, a CineComédies Lab writing residency, a co-production forum, a cinema trade fair, exhibitions and concerts.

Since its creation, the FIFCL has welcomed a host of film stars including Jean Reno, Nathalie Baye, Carole Bouquet, Lambert Wilson, Gérard Lanvin, André Dussollier, Karin Viard, Dany Boon, Franck Dubosc, François Berléand, Marie-Anne Chazel, Bouli Lanners, Christian Clavier, Benoît Poelvoorde and Josiane Balasko.
