The global heavy metal community continues to unite behind the call to officially establish Ozzy Osbourne Day, with the petition now surpassing 18,000 signatures and rising fast. The movement received a major surge in awareness and credibility as Sharon Osbourne personally acknowledged the campaign by liking the petition post on Instagram, standing in visible support alongside Kelly Osbourne, who previously engaged with the initiative as well.

Ozzy Osbourne — frontman of Black Sabbath, revolutionary solo artist, cultural icon, and the Godfather of Heavy Metal — changed the face of rock music forever. Generations of bands, fans, and musicians cite him as a cornerstone influence, and even after his passing, his legacy remains louder than ever.
This campaign, led by This Day in Metal, calls for July 22nd to be recognized annually as Ozzy Osbourne Day — a date for fans globally to crank the music loud, celebrate his life and legacy, and preserve his cultural impact for decades to come.
“Ozzy changed the sound of rock and heavy metal forever. We want a day where the world stops for a moment to honor him — not in silence, but in volume.” — This Day in Metal
Support from the Osbourne family has galvanized fans across the world, pushing the petition closer to mainstream recognition and public adoption.
