This Saturday, Guns N’ Roses will be part of the highly anticipated Back to the Beginning concert at Villa Park, located in the heart of Black Sabbath’s hometown, Birmingham, England. This all-day event promises an incredible lineup of rock and metal heavyweights, including Metallica, Slayer, Pantera, Gojira, Halestorm, Alice in Chains, Lamb of God, Anthrax, and Mastodon. The diverse selection of performers highlights the significant impact that Black Sabbath has had on the music industry.

The Back to the Beginning concert will not only celebrate the legacy of Black Sabbath but also serve as Ozzy Osbourne’s farewell performance, marking a poignant moment in rock history. Fans can look forward to witnessing a reunion of the original lineup of Black Sabbath, featuring Ozzy Osbourne, guitarist Tony Iommi, drummer Bill Ward, and bassist Geezer Butler. Notably, this will be Ward’s first performance with the band since 2005, as he did not participate in the band’s 2013 reunion album 13 or the subsequent tour.

“He’s doing great. He’s doing really great,” shared Sharon Osbourne with the BBC when the concert was first announced earlier this year. She emphasized that Ozzy did not have an opportunity to say goodbye to his friends and fans, expressing that for him, this concert represents a much-needed full stop in his storied career.

The Back to the Beginning concert will be available for live streaming, allowing fans around the world to join in on this monumental event. The livestream is scheduled to kick off at 3 p.m. BST on July 5, and viewers who purchase access to the stream will enjoy exclusive viewing rights to the entire concert for an extended period of 48 hours afterwards.
