What Rock Legends Attended Ozzy Osbourne’s Funeral?

On July 30, 2025, a private funeral was held on the shores of a serene lake at Ozzy Osbourne’s sprawling Buckinghamshire estate. The legendary musician, who passed away on July 22 at age 76, was laid to rest beside the water on his 250‑acre property with a floral tribute that spelled out “OZZY F‑‑‑‑ING OSBOURNE.”

Among the mourners were Ozzy’s Black Sabbath bandmates—Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Bill Ward—who returned to pay their final respects together. Joining them were iconic figures from Ozzy’s solo career and beyond: Zakk Wylde, his longtime guitarist; James Hetfield of Metallica; Corey Taylor of Slipknot; Marilyn Manson; Rob Zombie; and even Elton John—a testament to Ozzy’s influence beyond heavy metal. Young rocker Yungblud delivered a reading at the service, reflecting their personal friendship in recent years.

A public procession had wound through Ozzy’s hometown of Birmingham just a day earlier, drawing thousands of fans who lined the streets chanting “Ozzy!” while a brass band performed Sabbath classics. The cortege traveled past key landmarks including Villa Park and the celebrated Black Sabbath Bridge and Bench, where Sharon and the family paused to lay purple flowers.

Sharon Osbourne and their children—Kelly, Jack, Aimee, and Louis—led the private ceremony, with each wearing symbolic tributes to Ozzy: Kelly sported his signature round sunglasses, Louis chose a purple skull‑themed tie, Aimee wore a bat brooch, and Jack donned a silver cross pin. Sharon carried his wedding ring on a chain around her neck, a subtle yet poignant gesture of love.

At the time of his death, Ozzy Osbourne’s net worth was estimated at $220 million, amassed through his groundbreaking musical career with Black Sabbath, his successful solo albums, royalties from Ozzfest, reality TV ventures like The Osbournes, endorsements, and real estate holdings. His estate’s value is expected to increase following his death, which follows the familiar pattern seen with many rock stars whose catalog sales and streaming surged posthumously.

As Ozzy was laid to rest beside the tranquil lake, the gathering of rock icons stood as a powerful testament to his enduring legacy. Thousands of fans, fellow musicians, and family members came together in grief and celebration, providing one final tribute to the man who defined heavy metal—and refused to be anything else even in death.
