Meet the 2026 Luxembourg Fest Duke & Duchess:

Chris & Lisa Plier from Belgium, Wisconsin

“We moved to the Village of Belgium 25 years ago where we raised our two daughters Rebecca and Jennifer. Our Luxembourg roots are connected through three family names. The Plier family on Chris’s side and on Lisa’s Fathers side (Biever) and Lisa’s Mothers side (Weiland). Both families on Lisa’s side have a drawer at the LACS and her grandparents Alfred and Elenor Weiland have their wedding picture displayed on the Luxembourg American Family Tree / Sculpture. We first got involved with the LACS when applying for our dual citizenships. After much work, research and help from the LACS team we were able to get dual citizenship for both of us, both of our children, my Father (Marc Plier), my brother (Andrew Plier) and both of his young daughters. I (Chris) am also involved with the local community currently serving on the village board as a trustee as well as the village planning commission.”

40 Years of Honored Families

Since the very first Luxembourg Fest in 1987 Luxembourgish Families have celebrated and honored their heritage together. Known as the Largest Luxembourg Family Reunion, this festival has brought together honored families from the US, Luxembourg, and beyond. This year we take a look down memory lane and commemorate 40 years of honored families. Is your last name on the list below? Join us at this year’s festival to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the Largest Luxembourg Family Reunion!
