Ozzfest is one of rock history’s most influential touring festivals, created in 1996 by Sharon Osbourne and Ozzy Osbourne (with involvement from Jack Osbourne) to spotlight the fiercest acts in heavy metal and hard rock. Over the years, the festival became synonymous with brutal riffs, crowd-surfing anthems, and a relentless live-energy that drew fans from across the globe. While 2018 marked a flagship New Year’s Eve edition at The Forum in Los Angeles with Ozzy headlining, the conversation around a potential revival has continued, with possibilities of a 2027 return under Live Nation. This performer page celebrates the legacy and looks ahead to what might come next for Ozzfest.
