Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath's Final Concert Comes to Vinyl and Blu-ray

Ozzy Osbourne's last concert is coming home. The 5 July 2025 show at Villa Park in his hometown of Birmingham, where he played alongside the original Black Sabbath lineup for the first time in more than 20 years, will be released on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, CD, double vinyl and digital on 11 December 2026. Pre-orders are open now.

Osbourne died 17 days after the show. Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward joined him for what Universal describes as the band's final performance. Jason Momoa hosted, Tom Morello was musical director, and the bill included Metallica, Guns N' Roses, Slayer, Pantera, Tool, Anthrax, Gojira and Lamb of God. Universal says the 44,000 tickets drew more than three million requests.

The concert film, Ozzy Osbourne & Black Sabbath: Back to the Beginning, opened in cinemas worldwide in October through Trafalgar Releasing. "Back to the Beginning was a once-in-a-lifetime event that will go down in music history," says Sharon Osbourne, who managed Ozzy and executive-produced the film.

Which Edition?

Universal is releasing the film and soundtrack in several formats through Mercury Studios.

• 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and CD: a three-disc set, sold as a standard retail edition and as a retail-exclusive edition.
• Blu-ray and double vinyl: the film with a 2LP set. Black vinyl is sold at all retailers. Three limited editions follow: purple splatter from the Black Sabbath store, silver splatter from Ozzy's store, and metallic at specialty and independent record shops.
• Digital: the live soundtrack in standard, HD and Dolby Atmos.

The film runs for three and a half hours, with highlights from the July 5 show. On the Blu-ray, Jack Black takes on "Mr. Crowley" and Fred Durst "Changes". There is also a behind-the-scenes featurette, tribute clips from the likes of Dolly Parton, AC/DC and Ricky Gervais, and a "Sounds of Birmingham" documentary.
