Ozzy Osbourne has cancelled his own festival in order to undergo surgery.
The Mexican leg of Osbourne's famed Ozzfest festival was due to take place in Riviera Maya's Hard Rock Hotel on May 27 but due to an undisclosed medical situation, the Black Sabbath frontman has been forced to cancel the dates.
According to doctors, Ozzy will need four weeks to recover from the 'unspecified' surgery.
A statement on the Ozzfiesta website reads: "Like you, we were very excited about the event. However, Ozzy is having surgery, scheduled for May, following his South American tour. He requires at least four weeks of recovery time. We are very disappointed that we need to cancel."
Other than a performance by Ozzy himself, attractions at the event would have included a dinner party hosted by Sharon, an acoustic set by former Osbourne guitarist Zakk Wylde, a full Black Label Society set, comedy from Jim Nelson and a charity golf tournament for Sharon Osbourne Cancer Program.
