BELGIAN COMEDY:
In Belgium and especially in Flanders stand-up comedy is the dominating genre. It originated in the '90 in the big cities in Flanders, Antwerp, Ghent, Bruges. Important players were The Lunatic Comedy Club, Café Buster, KAFT and de Hoegaarden stand-up Tour.
Belgium does not have the same cabarettradition as the Netherlands. As a result the distinction, in Belgium between Stand-up and cabaret is much smaller than in Holland. Thus the term Comedy is mainly in use.
