Rush - Fifty Something tour heads into North America and Europe

Rush return to large arenas in 2026 with their Fifty Something tour, marking the Canadian rock trio’s first major run in more than a decade. According to official tour and ticket listings, the reunion shows stretch from June 2026 in California through April 2027 in Europe.

How Rush’s 2026 tour is structured

The Fifty Something tour is confirmed as a full concert run by Rush, beginning on June 7, 2026 at Kia Forum in Inglewood, California and currently scheduled to conclude on April 10, 2027 in Helsinki, Finland. Live Nation’s Rush events overview lists multiple 2026 dates branded under the Fifty Something name, while a detailed tour page documents the full routing across North America and Europe.

The tour is described as Rush’s first since their 2015 farewell run, with Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson performing alongside drummer Anika Nilles. A dedicated tour summary notes that the itinerary covers two legs, one in North America and one in Europe, with a total of 92 shows planned across both continents, underscoring the scale of the comeback run.Fifty Something tour overview

Key dates and cities for fans

For fans based in Germany, the most important detail is that the Fifty Something tour’s European leg includes dates across the continent but, based on the current official listings, no German city has been announced yet. The tour’s European routing is framed broadly as covering major markets in Europe, North America and South America, with the closing night set for Helsinki in Finland.Tour routing summary

In North America, the schedule includes multiple nights in cities such as Inglewood and Mexico City early in the run, followed by further dates in Detroit and Montreal later in 2026. One official concert list shows four shows at Bell Centre in Montreal across early September 2026, which sit very close to today’s date and illustrate how demand in established Rush strongholds remains high.2026 concert list excerpt
