The Canadian rock legends have extended their Fifty Something Tour with new dates across South America, the UK and Europe in 2027.
The band will kick things off in South America with a show in Argentina on January 15, followed by five Brazil concerts between January 22 and February 4. The shows will be their first in the region for 17 years.
They'll then return to Europe for the first time since 2013, performing from February 19 to April 10 with stops in France, the Netherlands, Germany, Poland, Italy, Switzerland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Finland. Their UK dates include a show at Glasgow's OVO Hydro, two nights Manchester's Co-op Live, and two nights at the O2 Arena in London.
The new dates will follow the band's previously scheduled 2026 tour dates across the United States, Canada and Mexico.
The tour will feature returning vocalist and bassist Geddy Lee and guitarist Alex Lifeson, joined by touring drummer Anika Nilles and new keyboardist Loren Gold, performing Evening With-style shows, delivering two career-spanning sets each night. The trek also marks Rush's 50th anniversary and pays tribute to their late drummer Neil Peart, who passed away in 2020 following a private battle with cancer.
Tickets for the new South American, UK and European shows go on general sale at 10am local time this Friday (February 27). All other dates are on sale now - Compare and buy tickets here.
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees put out their latest studio album, and 19th to date, 'Clockwork Angels', in 2012.
More recently, last spring they released the 50-track super deluxe anthology 'Rush 50', spanning their entire discography. They'll follow that with an expanded boxset of 'Grace Under Pressure' on March 13, featuring a new album mix by Terry Brown and a live recording of their 1984 hometown show at Toronto’s Maple Leaf Gardens.

Fresh from their performance at this year's 68th Annual Grammy Awards, where they earned a third consecutive nomination, the Canadian alt-metallers have announced their Tsunami Sea Tour will hit Glasgow's SECC Hall 3, Nottingham's Motorpoint Arena, Manchester's Co-op Live, Cardiff's Utilita Arena and London's OVO Arena Wembley between September 12 and 19.
They'll then continue their biggest UK and European tour to date across mainland Europe, with shows lined up in Germany, Poland, the Czech Republic, Austria, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Belgium and France from September 22 to October 9.
Special guests JINJER and Dying Wish will support on both the UK and European legs, with tickets for all dates going on general sale at 10am local time on Friday (February 27) - Compare and buy tickets here.
The new tour follows the band's sold-out London show at Alexandra Palace during their European tour in February last year. They launched the Tsunami Sea Tour across North America that spring, supported Linkin Park on their From Zero World Tour in Europe and the UK, and returned for a second North American leg in the fall.
The tour takes its name from the band's second album, 'Tsunami Sea', released last March through Pale Chord Music/Rise Records.
Frontwoman Courtney LaPlante teamed up with Poppy and Evanescence's Amy Lee last September to release the collaborative single End Of You. In October, she contributed the theme Ties That Bind for Riot Games' video game 2XKO.
