Infrared spectra of SN 1987A have been obtained at the Anglo-Australian Telescope since the explosion of this supernova. I present highlights from this program which include the analysis of the molecular emission, the determination of the mass of 57Co in the ejecta and the analysis of the emission due to dust in the ejecta. I also show the spectrum of the supernova in the infrared 5 years after explosion.
