Ozzy Osbourne ‘Working Class Hero’ Exhibit at Birmingham Museum Extended to September
It’s been several months since the world suffered the loss of metal icon Ozzy Osbourne and it seems like interest in the man’s life hasn’t waned at all. That little fact is so ironclad that Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery is being extended until September.
Since the exhibit opened last June, approximately 425,000 people have visited it. Featuring Ozzy‘s various awards, RIAA platinum/gold discs, and various photos and artifacts, the exhibit was expanded last month with a tribute wall on what would have been Ozzy’s 77th birthday.
Sharon Osbourne, Ozzy’s wife and manager, said the entire family was excited to learn the exhibit would be available to the public a while longer.
“We are so proud that Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery asked to extend Ozzy Osbourne: Working Class Hero and that more fans will now have the opportunity to go through the exhibit.”
Similarly, Sam Watson, chair of Central BID Birmingham, said officials were pleasantly shocked to see the outpouring of support and the level of foot traffic the exhibit’s brought to the Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery.
“Central BID is extremely proud to bring this exhibition to Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery with the kind support of Sharon Osbourne. The demand to see the exhibition has been phenomenal and we are very grateful that Sharon and her family have allowed us to extend the exhibition until September 2026, which will give Ozzy’s fans from the UK and around the world an opportunity to celebrate his extraordinary life and achievements.”
If you’re in the area or are planning to head over to Birmingham to check out the sights, ‘Ozzy Osbourne: Working Class Hero’ is open every day at Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
