Ozzy Osbourne Performs Limited Set at Black Sabbath's Farewell Concert

Ozzy Osbourne has confirmed that he will only perform 'little bits and pieces' at Black Sabbath's farewell concert, 'Back to the Beginning,' scheduled for July 5, 2025, at Villa Park in Birmingham. During his SiriusXM show, Osbourne explained that he is unable to do a full set due to health issues, including his battle with Parkinson's Disease. Despite not being able to perform extensively, he expressed excitement about reuniting with his bandmates for the first time in two decades. The concert will also feature a star-studded lineup, including Metallica, Slayer, and Alice in Chains, making it one of the largest metal gatherings in Birmingham's history. Proceeds from the event will benefit charities such as Cure Parkinson's, Birmingham Children's Hospital, and Acorns Children's Hospice. Osbourne's wife, Sharon, emphasized the concert's significance as a farewell for Ozzy to say goodbye to his fans and friends.
