Ozzfest 2003 was a scheduled concert tour for Ozzy Osbourne's Ozzfest that would of taken place in Europe, including the United Kingdom. It was eventually canceled on three different occasions due to Osbourne's health. The tour featured a line-up of Ozzy Osbourne, HIM, and either Godsmack, Kelly Osbourne or Voivod depending on the itinerary. The first attempt was to take place between September 4th to September 30th of 2003, which was canceled because Ozzy had to have foot surgery. The second attempt was dated for shows between October 22nd to December 5th, but was canceled due to side effects he received taking his medication. The final rescheduling was for January 15th to February 26th, but the band already pulled out and opted to do a winter tour in support of Love Metal.
