Previously announced US and Canadian shows have sold out
Rush co-founders Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson announce 17 additional cities on their 2026 headline tour, Fifty Something, due to incredible demand. The tour, in celebration of the band’s music, legacy, and the life of late drummer and lyricist Neil Peart, has new dates in cities including Philadelphia, Boston, Montreal, Washington D.C., Atlanta, Edmonton, Seattle, Vancouver, and more.
Presales for the newly added shows start on Monday, October 27th at noon local time, ahead of the general sale on Friday, October 31st.
Rush invites fans to get closer than ever with three elevated offerings: an all-new VIP program, the first-ever 2112 Platform Experience, and curated Travel Packages for fans making a trip to see the show.
Rush initially announced dates in seven major North American cities, and all the dates in the US and Canada have sold out. These new dates have been added due to the incredible demand for tickets on those dates.
The band shares in a new video, “We are blown away from the response to the announcement we made a few weeks ago that we’re going back on tour. I cannot tell you how surprised and overwhelmed we are and the way you guys have welcomed Anika Nilles. It’s been very heartwarming, and I know that she’s very appreciative of that. We’re even more excited to get back on stage and play with her and to go through the plethora of songs that we’re planning.”
These shows mark the first time Lee and Lifeson have toured together in eleven years since the finale of Rush R40 Tour on August 1, 2015 at the Forum in Los Angeles, CA, bringing it full circle with a return to the Forum to embark upon these special shows.
Rush will perform multiple shows in cities across Canada, the United States and Mexico, beginning June 7th at The Kia Forum in Los Angeles. 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 35 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.
Additionally, Rush recently revealed the 50-track super deluxe anthology, Rush 50. The project is available in five distinct configurations, including the Super Deluxe Edition, Rush Store Exclusive Super Deluxe Edition, 7-LP Deluxe Edition, 4-CD Deluxe Edition, and Digital Edition. It represents breadth of their discography, beginning with the first-ever reissue of their 1973 debut single and concluding with a live recording the final song Lee, Lifeson, and Peart played together during the R40 Tour closer at The Forum.
