Due to overwhelming demand, the road to "The End" just got longer. On the heels of their much-anticipated performances in North America, Australia, New Zealand and Europe, BLACK SABBATH will end the epic journey they began nearly five decades ago with another run of North American dates in fall 2016. These shows will follow a mix of summer headlining and festival performances throughout Europe.
The second run of North American dates kicks off August 17 at Jones Beach Amphitheater in New York and includes stops at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles (where the band last performed a sold-out show on their wildly successful 13 world tour in 2014), Chicago, Philadelphia, Toronto, Detroit, and Dallas, among others, before wrapping September 21 at AK-Chin Pavilion in Phoenix, Arizona.
The massive 2016 world tour by the greatest metal band of all time marks the end for Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler as they close the final chapter in the final volume of the incredible BLACK SABBATH story with this tour.

Everyone has a plan, till you get punched in the face,
Some related news:
No new Sabbath album says Ozzy.
"Icons have "opted against" recording 13 follow-up, says report
Ozzy Osbourne is reported to have said that Black Sabbath have "opted against" making one more album.
The frontman previously said their farewell tour would be preceded by a follow-up to 2013's 13.
But as the band continue to reveal The End tour dates, Ozzy tells NOLA: "It's the end of Sabbath, believe me. In December, I'll be fucking 68 and I think it's time to call it the end of the day.
"I'm not saying I won't get on stage with Geezer or Tony or any of them some time, but officially we're going to be done.
"I don't want it to dwindle and dwindle and play just for the sake of making another fucking sack full of cash. So it's time, and then I'll go back to doing my own thing."
NOLA's report adds that Osbourne says "the group has opted against recording a final album."
Sabbath were this month announced as Saturday night headliners for Download 2016 – their band's only UK date so far announced for next year."
