SABBOTAGE The best and the most authentic Tribute to Black Sabbath on the UK circuit
- Saturday 6 June 2026
- Yardbirds Rock, Grimsby
Enjoy Ozzy era Sabbath Classics performed by the UK’s Leading Black Sabbath Tribute
Sabbotage Black Sabbath Tribute deliver the most powerful and most authentic Ozzy era Sabbath show. With well over two and a half hours of Ozzy era Sabbath in the bands repertoire, Sabbotage never fail to entertain and are the closest you can get to the God Fathers of Heavy Rock in their heyday.
Sabbotage arrived on the scene in November 2014. Formed from the ashes of established Black Sabbath Tribute Snowblind immediately it was obvious that this band would become the UK’s most authentic and by far the best Black Sabbath tribute. All of the band are highly accomplished and experienced musicians sharing a great passion for early Black Sabbath in particular, which results in an unforgettable experience for all having the privilege to see them perform live.
For those that missed Black Sabbath in their first incarnation this is definitely the closest you are ever likely to get to the real thing.
Sabbotage have a repertoire of something like 2 hours’ worth of early Black Sabbath classics to draw from but are still adding to this to keep creating the ultimate Sabbath tribute.
