The BRIT Awards will honor Ozzy Osbourne with the Life Time Achievement Award at the ceremony on Saturday February 28.
The famous heavy metal star, known as the Prince of Darkness, died last year at the age of 76 and will be honored for his outstanding contribution to the music industry.
There will be a number of tribute performances led by Robbie Williams, who was personally asked by Ozzy’s wife Sharon Osbourne to be part of the show due to his long-time association with the Osbourne family.
Curated by Sharon herself, it will feature a special arrangement of No More Tears – the title track from Ozzy’s multi-million selling 1991 album of the same name.
Robbie will be joined on stage by Ozzy’s lead guitarist Zakk Wylde, as well as Adam Wakeman, Robert Trujillo and Tommy Clufetos.
Interestingly, Ozzy himself hosted the BRIT Awards in 2008 alongside his family Sharon, Kelly and Jack.
Stacey Tang, Chair of the BRIT Awards 2026 Committee and Co-Chair of RCA Records at Sony Music UK, said: “Ozzy Osbourne has been a powerful force in modern music. Possessing an unmistakable voice and unique presence, he reshaped the sound and spirit of rock, inspiring generations of artists who followed.
“This Lifetime Achievement Award recognizes a remarkable legacy built on originality and lasting influence, which continues to touch fans around the world.”
Ozzy died aged 76 at his home in Buckinghamshire on July 22 after suffering an “acute myocardial infarction” and “out-of-hospital cardiac arrest”.
