Ozzfest started in 1996 and went on to launch the careers of many metal bands. The annual festival was famous for its headline set by Ozzy or Black Sabbath while having all the band that the hard rock and heavy metal fans were propping up. The last couple of Ozzfests were destination-only shows and not the touring festival it used to be. But now how’s this for a destination? The Metaverse! That’s right, it looks Ozzfest will be a part of the 2nd annual Metaverse Music Festival.
The festival is put on by Decentraland, the world’s largest user-owned and operated virtual social world. This year, it is said that the festival will return bigger and bolder from November 10-13 with 100 confirmed artists (more to come) across uniquely curated community genre stages, and with newly-created, Web3-enabled, immersive music experiences. Presented by digital asset platform Kraken. The festival will be free to attend, online of course.

About Decentraland: Launched in 2020, Decentraland is a virtual social world powered by the Ethereum blockchain and the first decentralized metaverse. Within the Decentraland platform, users can create, experience, and monetize content and applications as well as socialize and attend a wide range of daily community-driven events. Decentraland is unique in that it is owned, created, and governed by the people who use it every day. Through the decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) users can submit proposals and even apply for grants for the community to vote on.
Ozzy is currently supporting his latest solo album Patient Number 9 with his latest single “One of Those Days” featuring the legendary Eric Clapton.
