Final Farewell: Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath to Rock One Last Time

Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath plan a benefit show in Birmingham, marking their historic reunion.


The legendary heavy metal band Black Sabbath, featuring its original line-up, is set to light up Birmingham again for their final performance. Scheduled for July 5, the concert, named "Back To The Beginning," will include an extraordinary festival featuring influential bands that emerged thanks to Sabbath, including Metallica and Slayer. Ozzy Osbourne, 76, who has faced health challenges in recent years, is excited for the chance to reconnect with bandmates Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Bill Ward on stage after two decades.

Proceeds from this monumental event will support prominent charities, including Cure Parkinson's and Birmingham Children's Hospital, while a "supergroup" of rock stars will join the solo acts. Fans will be treated to a range of beloved classics, promising to make it "the greatest heavy metal show ever." With an impressive set-list and a nostalgic lineup, this farewell concert stands as a significant tribute to a band recognized as heavy metal pioneers.

In 2017, Black Sabbath bid farewell with a sold-out show, marking an impactful legacy spanning decades. After facing numerous health challenges, Osbourne, eager to say goodbye to fans personally, vows to put on an unforgettable performance.

The anticipation for “Back To The Beginning” signals not only nostalgia but also a celebration of the band's profound influence on rock music.
