After announcing that it will touch down in late founder Ozzy Osbourne‘s hometown of Birmingham, U.K. next year, Ozzfest revealed that it will also hit the U.S. for the first time in nearly a decade in 2027.

Ozzfest was cooked up by Ozzy’s wife and manager Sharon Osbourne in 1996 after she was unable to book Ozzy on the Lollapalooza festival. Ozzfest then quickly became a popular annual touring festival that brought a day of hard rock to the U.S. and Europe through 2008. Since then, it has taken place sporadically, most recently as a one-day event in 2018 at The Forum in Inglewood, California, with a lineup that featured Rob Zombie, Body Count, Marilyn Manson and others.
