RUSH announces 2026 tour ‘Fifty Something’ in honor of Neil Peart
“R40” tour back in 2015. The announcement of the “Fifty Something” tour has generated immense excitement and anticipation among fans of the iconic Canadian rock band.
The tour’s name, “Fifty Something,” cleverly references both the band’s five-decade-long career and the fact that both Lee and Lifeson are now in their late fifties. Despite the passage of time, the duo is eager to hit the stage once more and deliver unforgettable performances for their dedicated fan base.
The loss of Neil Peart in 2020 was a devastating blow to RUSH and their fans worldwide. Peart’s virtuosic drumming, intricate lyrics, and philosophical themes were integral to the band’s identity and sound. The “Fifty Something” tour will serve as a fitting tribute to the legendary musician, ensuring that his legacy lives on through the music he helped create.
One of the most exciting aspects of the upcoming tour is the promise of an enhanced live experience, with new production elements and a revamped setlist that reflects the band’s entire discography. Longtime fans can look forward to hearing classic hits alongside deep cuts that have rarely been performed live. The tour is not just a nostalgic look back at RUSH’s past but a celebration of their enduring impact on the world of rock music.
The “Fifty Something” tour will kick off in the spring of 2026 and will include dates in major cities across North America and Mexico. Exclusive presales and VIP packages will be available for fans looking to enhance their concert experience and get up close and personal with their rock idols. The tour promises to be a highlight for any music lover looking to witness two rock legends back in action.
As the music world eagerly awaits the return of RUSH to the stage, the band’s loyal fan base is gearing up to celebrate their music, legacy, and enduring influence. The “Fifty Something” tour is not just a concert series but a testament to the power of music to unite people across generations and create lasting memories. Fans of RUSH, both old and new, can look forward to an unforgettable live experience that pays homage to the band’s incredible journey over the past five decades.
