Boozers were decked with purple balloons and flags; murals were everywhere you looked; people donned Ozzy outfits, flooding the streets with battered T-shirts and denim jackets. It felt like a World Cup final for the metal fans who flooded in from every corner of the planet .

The full lineup, which kicked off at 1 p.m. BST, featured an all-star cast of performers. Alongside Black Sabbath, the day also saw performances from Metallica, Slayer, Guns N' Roses, Tool, Pantera, Anthrax and more.

Forty thousand fans packed out Villa Park in Birmingham to watch Ozzy Osbourne's much-anticipated last show ever. Drummer Bill Ward, guitarist Tony Iommi and bassist Geezer Butler joined Osbourne on the revolving stage.
