The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has been successfully taking data since March 2010 and many new and exciting results have been recently published. This colloquium will review the topic of “Flavour Physics” at the LHC . Flavour Physics is the search for new phenomena in quantum loop processes involving heavy quarks and is expected to hold the key to the question “Why is the Universe made of matter and not antimatter?”. One of the main experiments at the LHC , the LHCb experiment is specifically designed for this purpose. The colloquium will discuss the status of LHCb, describe the first exciting results from the experiment and look at the expectations for the next few years.
