We report the detection of the optical and near-infrared counterparts to the X-ray transient IGR J17091-3624 (Kuulkers et al. 2003, ATel #149). This finding is based on optical observations of the currently ongoing outburst (Krimm et al. 2011, ATel #3144, #3148) as well as optical and near-infrared pre-outburst images. All epochs of imaging were acquired with the 6.5m Magellan Baade telescope at LCO.
