Rush co-founders Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson have announced 2027 dates for their ‘Fifty Something’ tour.

The tour is a celebration of Rush’s music, legacy, and the life of late drummer and lyricist Neil Peart. The response to the tour was overwhelming with the initial 22 dates selling out immediately, which encouraged additional shows, resulting in a total of 58 shows in 24 cities and over half a million tickets sold for 2026.

In 2027 the band will visit South America, the United Kingdom and Europe. The dates will be the first time the band has played in Europe since 2013 and 17 years since visiting South America. Performing 24 shows across 13 countries, these special “evening with” shows will find the band playing two sets each night. Each show will feature a distinct selection of songs and RUSH will build each night’s setlist from a catalogue of 40+ songs including their greatest hits and fan favorites.

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).

Of the tour, Geddy Lee says: “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.”

Carrie Nuttall-Peart and Olivia Peart, Neil’s widow and daughter share: “We are thrilled to support the Fifty Something tour, celebrating a band whose music has resonated and inspired fans for generations, and to honor Neil’s extraordinary legacy as both a drummer and lyricist. Neil’s musicianship was singular. Compositions of intricacy and power that expanded what rhythm itself could express. As both drummer and lyricist, he was irreplaceable. Inimitable in his artistry, and unmatched in the depth and imagination he brought to the lyrics that inspired and moved so many, he profoundly shaped how fans connected with him and the band, giving voice and meaning to their own lives. As the band enters this new chapter, it promises to be truly unforgettable. We are excited to see how their new vision unfolds, and to hear this legendary music played live once again.”
