**Black Sabbath Announces 2025 Reunion Tour: “Back to the Beginning – Legacy Tour” Kicks Off This July**
In a thunderous announcement that has sent shockwaves through the rock and metal world, **Black Sabbath** has officially confirmed their long-awaited **2025 reunion tour**, marking their first major series of live performances since 2007. Titled the **“Back to the Beginning – Legacy Tour 2025,”** the historic tour is set to begin on **July 10, 2025**, at **SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles**.
For fans of the band that *created heavy metal*, this marks the return of the gods.
### A Tour Decades in the Making
Formed in **Birmingham, England in 1968**, Black Sabbath’s pioneering mix of blues, doom, and dark themes helped invent an entire genre. While they’ve had multiple lineups over the decades, it’s the original members — **Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler,** and **Bill Ward** — that fans most associate with the band’s unmistakable sound.
Though they last toured together briefly in 2007, and again for farewell shows in 2016–17 (minus Ward), this new 2025 run is the **first full-fledged reunion tour featuring the original lineup in nearly two decades**.
> *“We’ve had a lot of time to reflect,”* said **Tony Iommi** during the official announcement. *“Now, we’re ready to come back — to where it all began. For us, and for the fans.”*
### Tour Details and What to Expect
The **Back to the Beginning – Legacy Tour** will span **North America, Europe, South America, Asia, and Australia**, with over 40 dates expected. Early stops include:
* **July 10** – Los Angeles, CA – SoFi Stadium
* **July 14** – Chicago, IL – Soldier Field
* **July 20** – New York City, NY – MetLife Stadium
* **August 5** – London, UK – Wembley Stadium
* **August 9** – Birmingham, UK – Villa Park (the spiritual homecoming)
The tour promises a setlist filled with the classics — *“Paranoid,” “Iron Man,” “War Pigs,” “N.I.B.,” “Children of the Grave”* — alongside **a few surprises**, including unreleased archival material and special tributes to the band’s legacy.
### Ozzy’s Return: A Miracle in Motion
The biggest shock of all? **Ozzy Osbourne’s participation**. Following years of health challenges and what was believed to be his final performance in 2024, many thought Ozzy had closed the stage door for good.
> *“I swore I was done,”* Ozzy said with a grin. *“But then Tony called… and I couldn’t say no. One more ride with the lads. Let’s go!”*
Doctors have cleared Ozzy for limited performances, and insiders say the tour is being carefully scheduled with his health in mind — a mix of shorter sets, extended breaks, and the possibility of guest vocal support if needed.
### Fan Reaction: “The Metal Universe Just Shifted”
Within hours of the announcement, social media exploded with reactions. Longtime fans — many of whom never thought they’d see Black Sabbath live again — called it **the biggest music news of the decade**.
> *“The metal universe just shifted. Black Sabbath is back. And we’re going back to the beginning.”*
Ticket pre-sales begin **July 12**, with general sales opening **July 15**. VIP packages, exclusive merch, and backstage meet-and-greets are expected to sell out within minutes.
### Final Thoughts
In a world where legends fade quietly into history, **Black Sabbath is doing the opposite**. They’re roaring back for one final march — not just to celebrate their beginnings, but to remind the world why they started it all in the first place.
The **Back to the Beginning – Legacy Tour 2025** isn’t just a concert series. It’s a tribute. A revival. A thank you.
And it may be the last chance to witness **the origin of heavy** — *live and louder than ever*.
**Get ready. The gods are returning. 🖤🤘**
