This seminar presents the observation of the Higgs boson decay to a bottom quark-antiquark pair by the ATLAS and CMS experiments. The results presented use all available datasets from the LHC Run 1 and Run 2 including the most recent 13 TeV dataset that corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 80 fb⁻¹. The analysis strategy and the background estimation techniques are discussed and a comprehensive set of measurements are presented.
