Trams in Liège, Belgium, date back to horsecars which were replaced by electric trams starting in 1893. Trams in Liège were abandoned by the end of 1967. However, trams made a comeback in the form of the Liège tramway (French: tramway de Liège) at the end of April 2025.
The Liège tramway is a light-rail line connecting the communities of Sclessin (fr) and Coronmeuse (fr) along the Meuse passing by Liège-Guillemins railway station and Place Saint-Lambert within the city. The line also has a branch to Bressoux (fr) where the line's maintenance and storage center is located. The line was put into regular service on 28 April 2025. The line is operated as a public–private partnership, whereby the private partner Tram'Ardent maintains the trams and infrastructure and the publicly owned TEC operates the trams.
