A review is given of large-scale magnetic fields in disks and halos of spiral galaxies. A particular attention is given to vertical field structures, and we discuss their origin and implication on their interaction with halo gas. We point out that the disk-halo magnetic interface plays an important role in circulation of interstellar gas in galaxies, in particular a large-scale circulartion from the galactic center to outer disk regions.
