RUSH - Fifty Something Euro 2027 Tour

RUSH - Fifty Something Euro 2027 Tour

Having already announced that they would be playing concerts in Canada, the USA and Mexico this year as part of the special Fifty Something Tour in 2025, it has now been confirmed that RUSH will also be returning to Europe in 2027. The tour will see founding members Geddy Lee (bass, keys, vocals) and Alex Lifeson (guitar, vocals) celebrate the musical legacy they created with their late bandmate, drummer and lyricist Neil Peart. GRAMMY® Award-nominated band RUSH was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame® in 2013.

In North and Central America, RUSH will play a total of 58 shows in 24 cities in 2026, for which over half a million tickets have already been sold. This will be followed by a further 22 dates in 12 countries, which will take the band to South America, the UK and mainland Europe in 2027. These Fifty Something Tour concerts will be RUSH's first in Europe since 2013. At these special "Evening with" shows, the band will create their setlist each night from a 40+ song catalog, including their biggest hits and fan favorites. Lee and Lifeson will be joined on Fifty Something by German drummer, composer and producer Anika Nilles, who has played over 60 shows with Jeff Beck and released four solo albums. Keyboardist Loren Gold (The Who, Roger Daltrey) also joins the band.

"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," comments Geddy Lee. "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."

Neil Peart's widow Carrie Nuttall-Peart and daughter Olivia Peart add: "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."

Through a special VIP program with "2112 Platform Experience" and curated travel packages, RUSH allow their fans to get closer to the band than ever before. Each travel package includes two nights' accommodation in a carefully selected hotel, premium tickets for the respective concert, a limited edition gift, the Rush Welcome Pack, transportation pass and other exclusive goodies.
