Ozzy Osbourne Funeral Procession Marches To Black Sabbath Bridge

In 2019, the city of Birmingham paid tribute to its greatest musical export, renaming a bridge in the center of town after Black Sabbath. Egyptian artist Tarek Abelkawi designed a bench with the likenesses and signatures of all four Black Sabbath members. Just a few weeks ago, those four bandmates reunited in Birmingham for one final performance, headlining the all-star Back To The Beginning concert. Then, legendary frontman Ozzy Osbourne passed away at the age of 76. In the wake of Osbourne’s death, which felt sudden even though the man was clearly not well, many fans (including Drake) gathered at Black Sabbath Bridge to pay tribute. This morning, metal fans flooded the streets of Birmingham to bear witness to Ozzy Osbourne’s funeral procession, which made a stop at Black Sabbath bridge.
