Belgium: online video service penetration by region 2021| Statista

More than half of the internet users in Belgium used an online video sharing service like YouTube in 2021. This was reported by a survey that looked into online activities from individuals in Belgium and its three regions: Dutch-speaking Flanders, French-language Wallonia and the Brussels-Capital Region (the city of Brussels with its surrounding villages). Overall, online video use has increased although differences can be observed.
