Abstract: The XENON100 experiment aims at detecting cold dark matter particles via their collisions with xenon nuclei in a two-phase time projection chamber filled with a total of 165 kg of ultra pure liquid xenon. The detector sensitive target mass is about 65 kg, surrounded by about 100 kg of active veto. The detector has been installed underground at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory (LNGS) since 2008 and after a successful calibration, dark matter data taking has started. The current status of the XENON100 as well as future plans for the upgrade are presented.
