OZZY Osbourne’s throne, on which he sat for his final concert a year ago Sunday, is now on public display in his home city of Birmingham.
The prop, centrepiece of the final two sets of the historic all star Back To The Beginning show on July 5 2025, can be viewed at the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery.
Having been returned to Birmingham on the first of this month, it is part of the Ozzy Osbourne: Working Class Hero display. The bat winged-chair was originally designed for Osbourne’s 2024 induction into the Rock’n’Roll Hall Of Fame.
The 22nd of this month marks the first anniversary of Ozzy’s death at the age of 76.
“As we approach the one-year anniversary of Back To The Beginning, it feels fitting that Ozzy‘s throne – which has now become synonymous with his final performance – would be placed in the museum, where it can be seen by the fans who loved him,” said Ozzy’s wife and manager, Sharon Osbourne.
The co chief executives of the Birmingham Museums Trust said in a joint statement: “We are delighted to be able to display Ozzy‘s throne at Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery. This extraordinary object is instantly recognizable to fans around the world and represents a powerful final chapter in Ozzy‘s remarkable career.”
“As we mark the first anniversary of his passing, it offers visitors a special opportunity to come together, remember Ozzy and celebrate the legacy of a true Birmingham legend,”
