Legendary heavy metal band Black Sabbath will reunite for a final farewell concert in Birmingham on July 5, headlining a massive one-day festival at Villa Park. The event, titled Back To The Beginning, will feature metal giants including Metallica, Pantera, Slayer, Gojira, and Anthrax.
This will be the first time in 20 years that the bandâs original lineupâOzzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Bill Wardâperforms together. Osbourne, who has battled Parkinsonâs disease and spinal injuries, will play a solo set before joining his bandmates. His wife, Sharon Osbourne, confirmed it will be his final performance, calling it his âfull stop.â

The concert will also feature a supergroup with stars like Billy Corgan, Slash, Fred Durst, Wolfgang Van Halen, and Tom Morello, who is serving as the eventâs musical director. Proceeds will support Cure Parkinsonâs, Birmingham Childrenâs Hospital, and Acorn Childrenâs Hospice.
Osbourne, 76, expressed his excitement, saying he never had the chance to properly say goodbye to fans. Despite health struggles, he remains determined to end his career on a high note.
