The original members of Black Sabbath, including Ozzy Osbourne, will perform together for the first time in 20 years. The band will play a special concert in Birmingham, England, on July 5. This will be their first show as the full band since 2005. The concert is very special because it will be in the city where the band was formed, a city known as the home of heavy metal music.

Since their last show in 2005, Black Sabbath has done some reunions, but this will be their first full show with all the original members. Black Sabbath is famous for songs like "War Pigs," "Paranoid," and "Iron Man," which helped create the heavy metal music style in the 1970s.

Ozzy's wife, Sharon Osbourne, said that while other members of the band may keep working and performing, this concert could be Ozzy's last performance. Ozzy, who is now 76, has had fewer public appearances since he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2020. Even though he has had health struggles, Ozzy has still made music, even winning a Grammy for his recent album.

The concert is called "Back to the Beginning" and will raise money for charity, including the Cure Parkinson’s organization. The show will take place at Villa Park, and it will also include performances by other famous rock and metal bands like Metallica, Slayer, and Alice in Chains.

Ozzy, who left Black Sabbath in 1979 because of his struggles with drugs and alcohol, has since had a very successful solo career. He said that he feels lucky to be able to give back to his hometown of Birmingham, the place where it all started for him and the band.

This concert will be a big moment for rock music fans, marking the end of an important era for Black Sabbath and Ozzy Osbourne. The money raised will go to help people with Parkinson’s disease, and the event will also celebrate the city where heavy metal music was born.
