Rush Fifty Something Tour: dates and where to stay

Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson are back on the road as Rush, with Anika Nilles on drums, playing an evening-with show and no opening act. The North American run ends in Vancouver on December 17, 2026; South America follows in January 2027, and Europe runs from Paris on February 19 to Helsinki on April 10. London gets three nights and 13 other cities get two, so one hotel can cover two shows.

The Rush Fifty Something Tour guide

Which city to pick

The tour plays in Nov 5, 2026 – Apr 10, 2027, and the stops split into two kinds of trip. In London, Berlin, Stockholm or Glasgow you stay in town, take a short ride to the arena and spend the rest of the trip in the city. Uncasville, a small town where the arena sits inside a casino resort, and Assago, the area outside Milan where Unipol Dome is, are a long way from the centre, so the ride there and back becomes part of the plan.

London has the most nights on the tour, which gives you the most dates to pick from. It also makes a good base if the trip is about the city as well as the show.

If you already have a longer trip planned, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, Basel and Oslo can be fitted around other travel with one evening set aside.

Getting to the arenas in North America

In Washington, Capital One Arena is a short walk from Gallery Place-Chinatown station on the Metro's Red, Green and Yellow lines. In Vancouver, Rogers Arena is close to Stadium-Chinatown SkyTrain station on the Expo and Millennium lines. In Edmonton, Rogers Place is next to Churchill station on the LRT Capital Line.

Getting to the arenas in North America

In Atlanta, State Farm Arena is served by the GWCC/CNN Center MARTA station on the Red and Gold lines.

In Uncasville, Mohegan Sun Arena is inside the casino resort. Plan on a car or coach, and use the shuttle and coach details the organizer publishes for the show.

Getting to the arenas in Europe

In London, The O2 is at North Greenwich, reached on the Jubilee line to North Greenwich station. Check the last Jubilee trains for the night, and leave the arena with time to spare.

In Berlin, Uber Arena is a short walk from Warschauer Straße, served by S-Bahn and U-Bahn lines. In Amsterdam, Ziggo Dome is reached from Bijlmer ArenA metro station. In Munich, Olympiahalle is in the Olympiapark, a short walk from U3 Olympiazentrum station.

In Cologne, Lanxess Arena is close to Köln Messe/Deutz station. In Glasgow, OVO Hydro is next to Exhibition Centre station. In Manchester, Co-op Live is near the Etihad Campus Metrolink tram stop. In Stockholm, Avicii Arena is at Globen, reached on the Tvärbanan light rail.

In Nanterre, Paris La Défense Arena is a walk from Nanterre-Préfecture station on RER A. In Milan, Unipol Dome is in Assago, reached on the M2 metro to Assago Milanofiori Forum. Check the organizer's published details for the way from the station to the arena.

Moving between stops

Within Europe, trains link most of the stops, and a flight is often the faster choice for longer distances, such as Helsinki to London.

Moving between stops

Between Brazilian cities such as São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Brasília and Curitiba, flights are the usual way to travel because the distances are long. In São Paulo, Allianz Parque is reached from Palmeiras-Barra Funda metro station.

Where to sleep

In Washington, the areas near Gallery Place and the downtown core put you a short ride from the arena and close to the city, which makes them a practical base for a show night.

In London, you can stay central and ride the Jubilee line out to North Greenwich for the show, or stay near North Greenwich if you want the shortest ride home. Rooms across the city cost more on show nights.

In Munich, the Olympiapark area keeps the walk to the arena short, while the centre suits a trip that is about the city. In Milan, Assago is outside the city, so staying in central Milan and taking the M2 out is the simpler plan.

In Uncasville, the resort is the place to sleep if you want to avoid the drive home.

Fan tips for stadium nights

  • The two-night cities. Washington, Uncasville, Hollywood, Tampa, Charlotte, Atlanta, Glendale, Edmonton, Vancouver, Santiago, São Paulo, Glasgow and Manchester each have two shows. The three London nights at The O2 are March 16, 18 and 21.
  • Several venues are outside the city. Uncasville is the Mohegan Sun casino in Connecticut, between Boston and New York. Hollywood is in Florida, between Fort Lauderdale and Miami. Glendale is west of Phoenix. The Paris show is at La Défense Arena in Nanterre, on RER A and metro line 1.
  • Brazil in January is the wet season. The Brazilian shows are in open-air stadiums in the hot, rainy months, and afternoon storms are common in São Paulo, Rio and Brasília. Pack a rain layer.
