Sharon Osbourne says Ozzfest will “absolutely” return in 2027, starting with a Birmingham run at Villa Park, then heading to the US.

TL;DR
The comeback is confirmed, but the details are not. There is no lineup, no exact dates, and no ticket plan announced yet.

Key Details
• Sharon Osbourne publicly confirmed plans to bring back Ozzfest in 2027.
• Coverage says it begins with a two day event at Villa Park in Birmingham.
• Reporting indicates it would then come to America for at least one US stop.
• No lineup, exact dates, or ticket details have been officially announced.
• The number of US cities and whether it becomes a touring run is not confirmed.

Breakdown
This is the first real “it is happening” statement after years of silence. Ozzfest has been a major brand in heavy music culture, so a return announcement instantly gets people thinking about lineups and legacy sets.

The Birmingham kickoff is a big symbolism move. It ties the comeback to home base energy before it heads to the US.

But for now, this is a plan, not a full festival announcement. Until dates and tickets appear, the return is real, and everything else is still coming later.

What to Watch Next
• Exact Birmingham dates and ticket on sale info.
• First lineup wave, even a small one, because it sets expectations.
• Clarity on the US stop, whether it is one city or multiple.

If Ozzfest really returns, do you want a classic legacy lineup, or a modern heavy mix with newer headliners?
