Rush Mania Continues: Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson Add 17 More “Fifty Something” Tour Dates
Understandably, Rush’s reunion tour for 2026 has sparked pandemonium among fans. It’s their first tour since 2011, and many assumed after Neil Peart’s passing this would never happen. The band announced shows in seven cities and quickly doubled the number of nights in each city. Those have all sold out.
But for fans that missed out, there’s still a chance.
Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson have added seventeen new cities to the “Fifty Something” tour, including stops in the U.S. and Canada. The new dates include four shows in between the previously announced Toronto and Cleveland shows with the rest following suit in late September and going all the way to December. The band, filled out by drummer Anika Nilles, is slated to wrap up their new dates on December 15th in Vancouver, British Columbia.
Lee and Lifeson shared their thanks in a video, saying they were surprised and overwhelmed by the fan response. “We have to go back into the gym,” Lee quipped.
Watch the full video announcement:
Aritst Presale for the new dates begins on Monday October 27th at 12pm local time in the US and Canada, while general onsale begins on October 31st. Rush will be offering VIP packages, as well.
Many fans were left disappointed with the ticketing system for the first round of tour dates, but Lee urges everyone to use the official outlets.
“Please go to Ticketmaster or Rush.com to get your tickets. The resellers are having a field day out there jacking up the prices,” he said.
