How To Watch Ozzy Osbourne Funeral Procession On Wednesday

Late metal legend Ozzy Osbourne takes a final trip down the streets of his hometown Wednesday during a planned public funeral procession in Birmingham, England.

The procession takes place at 1 p.m. local time (8 a.m. EST/7 a.m. CST), ahead of a private funeral service, according to multiple media outlets. Osbourne’s hearse plans to travel down Broad Street, a main artery of the city that includes a bridge and bench dedicated to the singer’s trendsetting band, Black Sabbath.

Osbourne died last week at age 76. His death came less than a month after an emotional farewell concert that included a reunited Black Sabbath performance, plus tributes to Osbourne from some of the biggest names in metal – a genre he helped shape in the early 1970s and beyond.

“It was important to the city that we support a fitting, dignified tribute ahead of a private family funeral. We know how much this moment will mean to his fans,” Birmingham mayor Zafar Iqbal told British media.

Local band Bostin Brass plans to provide music for the procession, according to The Guardian. The publication also reports that rock singer Yungblud and members of Black Sabbath plan to participate.
