Ozzy Osbourne has announced the rescheduled dates for his No More Tours 2 string of live performances in 2020.

The rescheduled tour will launch in the UK on 23 October, 2020 and conclude in Helsinki, Finland on 7 December.

Osbourne will perform at venues including the O2 Arena in London (28 October) and the 3Arena in Dublin.

“I can’t wait to get off my ass and get going again,” Osbourne said in a statement, “but you’re just going to have to be a bit more patient. I want to be 100 per cent ready to come out and knock your f***ing socks off.”

He continued: “I’m not retiring, I’ve still got gigs to do and also there’s a new album on the way. To the fans, I sincerely thank you for your patience, your loyalty, I love you.”

Pre-purchased tickets remain valid for all rescheduled tour dates, and refunds can be sought at point of purchase.
