  The LOw Frequency Array, LOFAR, is a next generation radio telescope with its
core in the Netherlands and elements distributed throughout Europe. It has
exceptional collecting area and wide bandwidths at frequencies from 10 MHz up
to 250 MHz. It is in exactly this frequency range where pulsars are brightest
and also where they exhibit rapid changes in their emission profiles. Although
LOFAR is still in the commissioning phase it is already collecting data of high
quality. I will present highlights from our commissioning observations which
will include: unique constraints on the site of pulsar emission, individual
pulse studies, observations of millisecond pulsars, using pulsars to constrain
the properties of the magneto-ionic medium and pilot pulsars surveys. I will
also discuss future science projects and advances in the observing
capabilities.
