Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery Extends Ozzy Exhibit to the End of 2025

Due to high demand from museum-goers and an incredibly high amount of individuals looking to learn more about “The Prince of Darkness” following his death on July 22, the Ozzy Osbourne exhibit at the Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery in Birmingham, United Kingdom has been extended to the end of the year.

Originally slated to run from June 25 to July 5 when the ‘Back to the Beginning’ show took place at Birmingham’s Villa Park, the “Ozzy Osbourne: Working Class Hero” exhibit has drawn a lot of attention from visitors. Produced and offered to the public for free through a partnership with Central BID Birmingham, the exhibition features a number of Ozzy’s accolades that he’s earned over the years, as well as various photos and videos that chart his journey from “a working-class kid from Aston” to the icon he became.

Zak Mensah and Sara Wajid, co-chief executives of Birmingham Museums Trust, shared their thoughts on the exhibition’s extension.

“We are delighted to announce the extension of ‘Ozzy Osbourne: Working Class Hero’ to the end of the year. The public response to the exhibition has been overwhelming so far, demonstrating the love and affection for Ozzy from the people of Birmingham and beyond.

“We would like to extend our gratitude to Sharon and the rest of the Osbourne family for allowing us to continue to display this exhibition as a fitting tribute to Ozzy’s life and legacy and to enable as many fans as possible to come and visit.”

Among the items at the exhibit are the various awards he earned over the years, including but not limited to Grammy Awards, Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame inductions, various MTV awards, Hollywood Walk Of Fame and Birmingham Walk Of Stars honors, and a selection of his platinum and gold discs.

Following Ozzy’s death, the museum hosted a book of condolences that fans could sign to show respect for the man. The book has since been closed and presented to the family on Sunday, August 3.
