Light pseudoscalars interacting dominantly with Standard Model gauge bosons (so-called axion-like particles or ALPs) occur frequently in extensions of the Standard Model. There is consequently a great interest in searches for ALPs both at the energy frontier and at the intensity frontier. In my talk I will review these different strategies and present an overview of existing constraints. I will then discuss the potential impact of ALP searches at various present and future experiments, in particular NA62 , SHiP and Belle II. I will point out that Belle II can search also for invisibly decaying ALPs, which allows to search for ALPs that mediate the interactions between the Standard Model and dark matter.
