Black Sabbath and Rammstein revealed as Download 2016 headliners

Black Sabbath have been revealed as the Saturday night headliners for Download Festival next year.

It will be the third time the band - made up of Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler - will have headlined the festival since it started in 2003.

"It's always like coming home," says Ozzy. "Download is my absolute favourite summer festival. See you all there."

The slot will take place during the rock band's final tour, called The End.

Sabbath last played at Download in 2012 on their reunion tour.

Meanwhile, Rammstein have been unveiled as the headline act for Friday night.

The German band previously headlined in 2013, when they appeared the same weekend as Iron Maiden, who are Sunday night's headline act again in 2016.

Rammstein used a range of pyrotechnics throughout their 2013 Download set.

At one point, their microphone stands were set on fire and they wore flame thrower masks.

Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne have been married since 1982

Guitarist Tony Iommi picked up the trophy and confirmed that their next tour would be their last.

Despite it being the last chance to see the rockers perform live, the band say the tour will be their biggest production yet.
