Get ready, Florida! The much-anticipated Tortuga Music Festival is hitting the shores of Fort Lauderdale Beach Park from April 10 to 12, 2026. This marks the 13th annual celebration of music, sun, and sea, and it promises to be one for the books. With its roots in country, rock, and roots music, this three-day festival is sure to attract tens of thousands of fans from all over the country.
The lineup is nothing short of spectacular. Headliners for this year include the chart-topping Post Malone, country star Riley Green, and the legendary Kenny Chesney, who will be making his fifth appearance as a headliner. Just imagine the atmosphere as these artists perform on three stages, alongside other talented musicians such as Ice Cube, The Fray, Colbie Caillat, and Tyler Hubbard. Emerging artists will also take the stage, with acts like Ashley Cooke and Brittney Spencer showcasing their skills.
What to Expect
The festival is not just about the music; it’s also a commitment to environmental education and protection. Tortuga has partnered with the Rock The Ocean Foundation, raising an impressive $6 million for marine conservation initiatives. Attendees can visit the Conservation Village at the festival to learn more about protecting our oceans.
For those planning to attend, there are various ticket options available. General Admission (GA) grants access to all three days with general standing areas, while VIP tickets offer premium viewing areas and exclusive bars. Super VIP tickets take it a notch higher with front-of-stage views, gourmet food, and backstage access. Keep in mind that tickets are expected to go on sale in Fall 2025, so mark your calendars!
Family-Friendly Fun
If you’re bringing the kiddos along, children under 10 can enter for free when accompanied by a ticket-holding adult. However, remember that outside food and beverages are not allowed, but don’t worry—there will be plenty of food trucks and local vendors on-site to satisfy your cravings.
