  More information on all VIP packages can be found on OZZFEST.com.

In addition, due to the number of tickets being re-sold online and elsewhere, it was announced today that OZZFEST will launch its own auctions beginning this evening. Registered users of Live Nation can bid on tickets. Further information on auctions can be found at http://www.livenation.com/OZZFEST. A portion of the proceeds generated by auction sales will benefit the Sharon Osbourne Colon Cancer Program at the Samuel Oschin Comprehensive Cancer Institute at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Live Nation and OZZFEST encourages those fans who want to participate in auctions to do so through the official site to avoid the purchase of counterfeit tickets.
