In 2025, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees and Grammy Award-nominated legends Geddy Lee (bass, keys, vocals) and Alex Lifeson (guitar, vocals), co-founders of the iconic band RUSH, announced their return to the stage for the highly anticipated FIFTY SOMETHING TOUR across Canada, the USA, and Mexico in 2026. The tour celebrates the enduring legacy of RUSH and pays tribute to the life and contributions of the late drummer and lyricist Neil Peart.
The announcement sparked excitement among fans, with the initial 22 dates selling out instantly. Due to overwhelming demand, the band added additional dates, expanding the tour to a total of 58 shows across 24 cities, selling over half a million tickets for 2026 alone.
Now, RUSH have unveiled new tour dates across South America, the UK, and Europe for early 2027. This leg will mark the band’s first performances in Europe since 2013 and their first South American shows in 17 years.
Spanning 24 shows across 13 countries, these special “Evening With” events will feature two sets per night. Each performance promises a unique experience, with setlists curated from a catalogue of more than 40 songs, blending greatest hits with fan-favourites, ensuring that no two nights are the same.
For Fifty Something, Lee and Lifeson will be accompanied by German drummer, composer, and producer Anika Nilles, who has performed as Jeff Beck’s drummer for over 60 shows and has released four solo albums. The band will also be joined by keyboard player Loren Gold (The Who, Roger Daltrey).
Geddy Lee commented, “We can’t wait to get back to all these cities we haven’t played in so long, as well as hitting some new places we’ve yet to play. Both Alex and I are loving the hours of rehearsal time we’re spending with Anika and now Loren, learning around 40 songs which will enable us to keep the shows evolving, playing some different songs on different nights. We are thrilled that many of our longstanding crew have come back to help us design the kind of RUSH show that fans have grown accustomed to expect from us. We dearly hope you will come along and help us celebrate 50 years of Rush music, while giving Neil the long overdue tribute he so richly deserves.”
