Ozzfest Announces 2027 Return With Three-Date U.K./North American Run
The iconic hard rock tour will celebrate its 30th anniversary with gigs in the U.K., U.S. and Mexico.
Ozzfest announced on Thursday, November 5 that it will return for its 30th anniversary with a three-date tour spanning the U.K., North America, and Mexico. The inaugural event will take place at the National Bowl in Milton Keynes, England on July 10, followed by a concert at Glen Helen Amphitheater in San Bernardino, California on September 11 and a performance at Estadio GNP Seguros in Mexico City on September 18.
The festival's co-founder and widow/manager, Sharon Osbourne, revealed that no lineup has been disclosed yet. Osbourne noted that Ozzy was the pioneer in launching a traveling metal festival, and Ozzfest remains a significant part of his legacy. The San Bernardino venue is the same location where the festival originated in 1996, while the Mexico City date marks the first Ozzfest in Mexico.
Osbourne will oversee the artists for the 2027 shows, with ticket sales for early Bat tickets commencing on November 6 at 10 a.m. local time. Ozzfest was initially established by Sharon Osbourne in 1996 when she couldn't secure a slot for Ozzy on Lollapalooza. The annual touring festival has been held sporadically since its conception, with the last event being a one-day performance at the Forum in 2018 featuring acts such as Rob Zombie, Body Count, and Marilyn Manson.
