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.

See the UK dates below:

Friday 23 October – Utilita Arena, Newcastle
Sunday 25 October – SSE Hydro, Glasgow
Wednesday 38 October – O2 Arena, London
Saturday 31 October – Resorts World Arena, Birmingham
Monday 2 November – Manchester Arena, Manchester
Thursday 5 November – 3Arena, Dublin
Sunday 8 November – Motorpoint Arena, Nottingham

“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.
