The Fifty Something Tour is an upcoming concert tour by the Canadian rock band Rush . The tour is set to begin on June 7, 2026 in Inglewood, California, and is currently set to conclude in Helsinki, Finland on April 10, 2027.[ 1] It will be Rush's first tour in 11 years, and their first live outing without drummer Neil Peart since 1974, following his death in 2020,[ 2] with Anika Nilles filling in for him.[ 3] On February 23, 2026, Rush announced that Loren Gold will be the keyboardist for the tour, making it the first time the band has toured as a quartet rather than a trio.[ 4] [ 5]
