According to TMZ, Ozzfest organizers are suing the OZY Fest, which took place in Central Park in New York City, NY back in July. The lawsuit says organizers originally sent the OZY Fest a cease and desist letter, due to the event’s name and logo being too similar to Ozzfest, leading to some confusion. They apparently ignored the letter claiming OZY Fest was a “media-focused event”, rather than a concert. Now, Ozzfest is trying to stop the name from being used again, and is also seeking profits from that July festival.
An official Ozzfest pop up shop will be opening at at the KCAL 96.7 station at 1940 Orange Tree Lane, No. 200 in Redlands, CA on October 14. The store will have Ozzfest, Ozzy Osbourne, and Black Sabbath merch, as well as $20 Ozzfest tickets, music, food trucks, and prizes. Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne will also make an appearance.
