Ozzy Osbourne arrives at the 62nd annual Grammy Awards at the Staples Center on Sunday, Jan. 26, 2020, in Los Angeles.

After it was previously delayed, Ozzy Osbourne’s upcoming “No More Tours 2” trek has now been canceled.

The tour, which was set to come through the Pittsburgh area June 11 at S&T Bank Music Park, has been called off according to an announcement on Osbourne’s Facebook page.

The tour “has unfortunately been cancelled to allow Osbourne to continue to recover from various health issues he has faced over the past year,” according to the Facebook post. The decision to cancel the tour was made to accommodate fans who’ve been holding tickets for rescheduled shows and have been asked to change plans, some multiple times, the post continued.

“I don’t want to start a tour and then cancel shows at the last minute, as it’s just not fair to the fans. I’d rather they get a refund now and when I do the North American tour down the road, everyone who bought a ticket for these shows will be the first ones in line to purchase tickets at that time,” Osbourne said.

Refunds are available at the original point of purchase. The post also stated ticket holders who purchased “No More Tours 2” tickets will have first access to tickets when the next tour is announced.

Osbourne was originally slotted to play then KeyBank Pavilion on June 13, 2019.

The announcement to cancel the tour comes the same week as Osbourne’s new album, “Ordinary Man,” is set for release Feb. 21.
