The Minister-President of Wallonia is the head of the Walloon government, the executive power of Wallonia, one of the three regions of Belgium.

The Minister-President of the Walloon Region should not be confused with the Minister-President of the French Community of Belgium, which is currently led by Rudy Demotte, the preceding minister-president of Wallonia.
