The forthcoming Power Trip music festival has lost one of its headliners.

Announced today, Ozzy Osbourne has been removed from the festival due to ongoing health problems. The iconic rocker was slated to perform on Saturday, October 7 alongside AC/DC. A replacement for Osbourne will be revealed soon.

A statement from Ozbourne reads:

As painful as this is, I’ve had to make the decision to bow out of performing on Power Trip in October.

My original plan was to return to the stage in the summer of 2024, and when the offer to do this show came in, I optimistically moved forward.

Unfortunately, my body is telling me that I’m just not ready yet and I am much too proud to have the first show that I do in nearly five years be half-assed.

The band that will be replacing me on Power Trip will be announced shortly. They are personal friends of mine and I can promise that you will not be disappointed.

Above all, I want to thank my fans, my band, and my crew for their unconditional loyalty and continual support.

I love you all and I will see you soon.

God Bless,

Ozzy
