Rush has confirmed a full 2026-2027 world tour, beginning with a hometown residency in Toronto.

The tour kicks off on August 7 at Scotiabank Arena, with three sold-out shows scheduled on August 9, 11, and 13.

The band recorded the Toronto performances for a potential concert film, citing the high demand from fans who have not seen Rush live.

The residency marks the final leg of a mini-residency with over 40 songs performed across the four shows.

The tour expands to include stops in Philadelphia, Detroit, Montreal, Boston, Cleveland, San Antonio, Denver, Seattle, San Jose, Washington D.C., and extends into Europe and South America.

Dates span through March 2024, with shows in Germany, the UK, and Brazil.

The tour includes a tribute to Neil Peart during the performance of 'Bravado.' Anika Nilles has been named the new touring drummer for Rush, stepping into the legendary role following Neil Peart.

Nilles emphasized her approach to playing Rush’s music with respect and sensitivity, treating each song as a blank page and making individual decisions on feel and improvisation during rehearsals.

The full itinerary is available at Rush.com.

In a separate announcement, BraveWords Records has released the album PRIOR CONVICTIONS by Alcatrazz, which includes two new tracks: 'Transylvanian Requiem' and 'Stand and Wait Your Turn.'"
