We present the elliptic flow of inclusive J/$\psi$ measured in the $\mu^{ +}\mu^{ -}$ channel at forward rapidity ($2.5<y<4.0$), down to zero transverse momentum, in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{ s_{ _{ \mathrm{ NN}}}}=2.76$ TeV with the ALICE muon spectrometer. The $p_{ \mathrm T}$ dependence of J/$\psi$ $v_2$ in non-central (20%-60%) Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{ s_{ _{ \mathrm{ NN}}}}=2.76$ TeV is compared with existing measurements at RHIC and theoretical calculations. The centrality dependence of the $p_{ \mathrm{ T}}$-integrated elliptic flow, as well as the $p_{ \mathrm{ T}}$ dependence in several finer centrality classes is presented.
