Ozzy Osbourne reunited with all his original Black Sabbath bandmates for his final ever live performance on Saturday (05.07.25)

The stadium erupted into huge cheers when Ozzy appeared on stage and he told fans: "You have no idea how I feel."

42,000 fans packed into Villa Park for the sold-out Back to the Beginning show, which saw Ozzy and Black Sabbath return to their hometown, 56 years after the band was formed in the city.

Ozzy has undergone seven surgeries in the past five years and he has also been living with Parkinson's disease since 2003.

While he plans to continue making music, the rock legend has insisted Saturday's performance will be his final one on stage.

He told the crowd: "It's so good to be on this f****** stage. Let the madness begin! You've got no idea how I feel. Thank you from the bottom of my heart."

Ozzy performed a selection of hits including I Don't Know, Blizzard of Ozz and Suicide Solution.

Anthrax, Guns N' Roses and Metallica all performed during the 10 hour concert, while there were also surprise video messages from the likes of Dolly Parton and Jack Black.

Meanwhile, Tool etc. vocalist Maynard James Keenan previously revealed he was concerned about whether Ozzy would be able to take to the stage.

Speaking to Loudwire Nights, he said: "I think for me, seeing Ozzy moving around at that event, the idea of him playing a show at all, if we're being honest...

"And even now, I'm cautious about saying, 'Yeah! All in, he's gonna do it.' Because man, I don't know what kind of modern miracles we'll come up with to get him on stage to do the songs, but this is gonna be a challenge for them. So ... I'm kinda preparing for the worst = but hoping for the best, as they say."
