Virgo is a 3 km arm laser interferometer aiming at the detection of gravitational waves in a range of frequency between 5 Hz and 5 kHz. Virgo has been built in the vicinity of Pisa – Italy, by a collaboration among several laboratories of CNRS (France) and INFN (Italy). The construction has been completed in 2003. 2004 has been devoted to commissioning the detector, with the aim to start the acquisition of scientifically interesting data in 2005. The status of advancement of the commissioning will be reported and the present sensitivity will be discussed.
