Tickets for all 58 shows on Rush's Fifty Something tour have been on sale to the general public for well over a month now. While the initial batch of cities (Toronto, NYC, etc.) sold out quickly, sales for the second batch of dates has not been nearly as robust, with plenty of tickets left. Prices on the secondary markets seem to have settled down as well, so if you missed out during the pre-sales and still need tickets, you have several options. Although it's unlikely that more US/Canada dates will be added at this point, additional legs outside of North America are planned, as Ged mentioned in an interview with the Globe and Mail back in October, saying that they are mulling the idea of extending the tour even further, outside of North America:
The tour has yet to begin, but already there is no end in sight, with concerts in Europe, South America and Asia being considered. "We're wrestling with extending the tour into 2027," Lee said. "I really don't know. We'll see how that all shakes down."
To that end, Rolling Stone magazine's Brazil edition is reporting that outgoing president of the Brazilian Football Club Grêmio stated earlier this week that Rush is slated to play the Arena do Grêmio in 2027. From the article (translated from Portuguese):
... It appears that a new leg of the tour should be confirmed soon, and Brazil is reportedly on the route. The information came from a source that, at least initially, seemed unlikely. On Monday, December 8th, the now former president of Grêmio, Alberto Guerra, ended his three-year term at an event inaugurating his successor, Odorico Roman. When announcing a series of offers made to the football club, he ended up "revealing" the existence of a proposal for the Grêmio Arena to host a concert by the Canadian group. Guerra even mentioned a date: January 21st, probably in 2027. He also said the show would generate R$1.5 million in revenue. The offer is on the table for the current management. There was no mention of other cities that might host Rush. It should also be noted that this information has not been confirmed by the band or national production companies.
As the article states, this is unconfirmed and just a rumor at this point, but still good to hear if you are a South American Rush fan. More information as we learn it. Thanks to Leo S for the heads up.
