Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson of RUSH spoke about their decision to reunite for a tour in 2026 and 2027 in a recent interview with The Guardian.

The run of dates will begin at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, site of the last RUSH concert on the legendary Canadian band's "R40" anniversary tour.

Joining Geddy and Alex on the trek will be German drummer Anika Nilles, who toured with legendary guitarist Jeff Beck in 2022 and has been rehearsing with Lee and Lifeson in preparation for the tour.

The tour, dubbed "Fifty Something", will celebrate RUSH's music, legacy, and the life of late drummer and lyricist Neil Peart.

RUSH will perform multiple shows cities across Canada, the United States and Mexico, beginning June 7, 2026 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 catalog of 40 songs including their greatest hits and fan favorites.

The tour now totals 58 shows across 24 cities, with over half a million tickets sold for 2026.

Earlier last week, RUSH announced the addition of South America and Europe tour dates to the "Fifty Something" tour, in early 2027.

The dates will be the first time the band has played in Europe since 2013 and 17 years since visiting South America.

RUSH's reunion tour is a testament to the enduring spirit of this iconic Canadian rock band.

With Anika Nilles on drums and Loren Gold on keyboards, Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson are set to once again electrify audiences with their unique blend of progressive rock, jazz fusion, and metal.
