Anisotropic flow measurements play a crucial role in understanding the physics and bulk properties of the system created in heavy ion collisions. In this talk I briefly review the most important results obtained so far, recent developments in the analysis techniques and the interpretation of the results, and what should we expect next, both at RHIC and LHC. I also discuss event anisotropies sensitive to the strong parity violation effects.

Such anisotropy, which very much resembles “out-of-plane directed flow” can be addressed with the help of three-particle correlations [ref] by measuring $cos(ϕ_α+ϕ_β-2Ψ_RP)$, where $ϕ_α,β$ are azimuthal angles of two (same or opposite) charged particles, and $Ψ_RP$ is the reaction plane angle.

It was shown in [ref] that the effect of the strong parity violation that lead to non equal number of right and left fermions (quarks) in the presence of strong magnetic fields of colliding nuclei would result in charge separation (preferential emission of same charge particles) in the direction perpendicular to the reaction plane.
