**Ozzy Osbourne Bids Farewell to Solo Career with Final Performance at “Back To The Beginning” Concert in Birmingham**
After more than five decades of shaping the sound and spirit of heavy metal, Ozzy Osbourne delivered his final solo performance on July 5 at the emotional “Back To The Beginning” concert at Villa Park in Birmingham, UK — the very city where his legendary journey began. With BLACK SABBATH’s last-ever appearance set to close the evening, Ozzy’s solo farewell took center stage as both a celebration and a send-off worthy of the Prince of Darkness himself.
Taking the stage to a thunderous ovation, Ozzy delivered a career-spanning set that included classics like “Crazy Train,” “Mr. Crowley,” and “No More Tears,” reminding fans exactly why he became one of the most iconic figures in rock history. His voice, though weathered by time and health challenges, still roared with conviction, and the energy of the crowd carried every chorus skyward.
Joined by longtime collaborators Zakk Wylde and Tommy Clufetos, the performance was not just a concert — it was a victory lap, a heartfelt thank-you, and a final bow to a solo legacy that began in 1980 and has influenced generations of metal artists ever since.
Fans from around the world filled the stadium and tuned in via livestream, many moved to tears as Ozzy addressed the crowd: “This is where it all started — and this is where I want it to end. Thank you for sticking with me all these years. I love you all.”
As the lights dimmed and the stage prepared for the final BLACK SABBATH reunion, Ozzy Osbourne’s solo chapter came to a close — not with silence, but with the echo of a legacy carved in decibels, darkness, and defiance.
