Black Sabbath Final Show Expected to Boost Birmingham Economy by £20 Million
Black Sabbath is set to perform their final concert, 'Back To The Beginning,' on July 5 at Villa Park in Birmingham, their hometown, in a show expected to generate approximately £20 million for the local economy. The event will feature all four original members—Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Bill Ward—performing together for the first time in two decades, alongside a star-studded lineup including Metallica, Slayer, Pantera, and Gojira. The band recently received the Freedom of the City of Birmingham, recognizing their cultural and musical impact on the city and the heavy metal genre globally. The concert's proceeds will support charities such as Cure Parkinson’s, Birmingham Children’s Hospital, and Acorn Children’s Hospice, reflecting the Osbourne family's commitment to giving back to their community. Judas Priest guitarist K.K. Downing, a fellow Birmingham metal pioneer, expressed excitement about the historic event, emphasizing the significance of the city’s working-class roots in shaping heavy metal's early days. Additionally, Jack Osbourne highlighted the impact of Black Sabbath's music on new metal bands and discussed a documentary on Ozzy's life, underscoring the lasting legacy of the band and its members.
