عن هذا المكان Chez Maman

Chez Maman opened at Rue des Grands Carmes 7 in October 1994 as Brussels' first dedicated drag cabaret venue. It is Belgium's oldest continuously operating drag venue — 31 years of unbroken nightly programming — and one of the longest-running dedicated drag cabarets anywhere in Europe. The venue is small: a ground-floor cabaret room with 50 seats, a small bar, and a purpose-built low stage. Programming has run essentially the same format for 31 years — three nightly shows at 22:00, 23:30 and 01:00, six drag performers per show, mixed French-Flemish-English cabaret with substantial audience participation. No cover for the show though a two-drink minimum applies. Chez Maman's significance to Belgian queer culture is the specific role of drag in Belgium's public LGBTQ+ life. Belgian drag has a distinct tradition — closer to French cabaret than to Anglo-American RuPaul-influenced drag — and Chez Maman's 31-year run has been the primary institutional site for that tradition. Regulars have included some of the most-cited Belgian drag performers: Ambiance Deluxe, Belladonna, Rita Rocket, and the trans performer Lolita Latex. Open Wednesday-Sunday from 22:00 to 04:00. Two-drink minimum. Bourse metro is a two-minute walk. On the standard Brussels queer heritage evening this is the natural cabaret stop — combine with pre-drinks at the neighbouring Chez Maman-adjacent Belgica bar and post-show at Le You dance club two blocks north for a full Brussels queer-nightlife circuit.

The best night I've ever had! The clientele was lovely, the servers were incredibly kind, the atmosphere was fantastic, and the drag queens weren't vulgar at all. A very professional show. I had an excellent evening and met some amazing people. Thank you, Mom and her artists! Plus, the restrooms were very clean.

Hours are incorrect. Waited 40 minutes after posted opening and kept being told "we open in 10 but they didn't open"

A wonderful discovery! I came with my mother and a friend, who are French and were visiting Brussels, and this place had been recommended to us. Honestly, we have absolutely no regrets! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, the setting is beautiful, and the staff is very welcoming. We had a fantastic time; everything was delicious and beautifully presented. Plus, it was my birthday week, which made it even more special. I highly recommend this place and will definitely return.

In the 1990s, in the heart of the Saint-Jacques district (the true LGBTQIA+ heart of Brussels), a place unlike any other was born: Chez Maman. Not just a bar, not just a stage, but a refuge, a family, a revolution in heels. Behind this affectionate name lies a simple yet powerful idea: To create a place where everyone can be themselves… and above all, shine without apology!
