Ozzfest to return to The National Bowl in Milton Keynes next summer

Iconic metal festival Ozzfest will return to The National Bowl next summer for the first time in almost 30 years.

The event had been due to take place at Villa Park in Birmingham but has been moved to the Milton Keynes venue because of ongoing re-development work at the football ground.

Details of the festival’s revival had been revealed by Sharon Osbourne earlier this year and it will take place on Saturday, July 10, 2027.

The ‘Early Bat Presale’ takes place at 10am tomorrow, Friday, November 6, and tickets will then go on general sale on Tuesday, December 8 at 10am.

Ozzfest was previously held at The National Bowl in 1998 and featured acts including Black Sabath, Ozzy Osbourne, Foo Fighters, Pantera, Soulfly, Slayer and Fear Factory.

After its inaugural edition two years earlier, it took place almost annually until 2018.

Following Ozzfest’s return to Milton Keynes, it will take place in both California and in Mexico.
