Legendary vocalist Ozzy Osbourne, famous for his work with Black Sabbath, has made the difficult decision to cancel his forthcoming tour. Despite his determination and love for performing on stage, the musician has been battling various health issues in recent years, including surgeries following a severe accident and a diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease.
Festival Appearance Postponed
The cancellation means that Ozzy will be unable to perform at the highly anticipated Power Trip Festival, an extravaganza featuring some of the biggest rock bands like Metallica, Guns N’ Roses, AC/DC, and Iron Maiden, among others. Originally planning to return to the stage in the summer of 2024, his body has made it clear that he is not yet ready.
In an Instagram message, Ozzy expressed his disappointment, stating, “As painful as this is, I’ve had to make the decision to bow out of performing at Power Trip in October. My body is telling me that I’m just not ready yet, and I am much too proud to have my first show in nearly five years be half-assed.”
While he didn’t reveal the replacement band, Ozzy assured his fans that it would be a group of personal friends who would not disappoint. He took the opportunity to thank his loyal fans, his band, and his crew for their unwavering support throughout his career.
Outpouring of Support from Devoted Fans
The news of the cancellation brought an outpouring of support and well-wishes from Ozzy’s devoted followers. Comments like “Everyone loves you, my guy. Take care of yourself” and “There’s no need to apologize, sir; you’ve offered years of amusement. Take care of yourself” flooded the comments section, highlighting the immense love and respect fans have for the rock icon.

Survival is my legacy.” Despite the toll his health issues have taken, he remains committed to his fans, describing his relationship with them as “the biggest love affair” of his life.
A Return to the Stage
While fans will have to wait a little longer for Ozzy’s return to the stage, they can take solace in knowing that his health and well-being are his top priorities. The rock legend promises to be back soon, ready to give his all to his devoted fans once again.
