By Dave Parsons

The 2025 Tortuga Music Festival is set to take place from April 4-6 at Fort Lauderdale Beach Park, offering attendees not only an impressive lineup of country music artists The Tortuga Music Festival is set to return to Fort Lauderdale Beach Park from April 4-6, 2025, promising a weekend filled with stellar performances from some of the biggest names in country music and beyond.

Leading the 2025 lineup are three powerhouse artists: Jelly Roll, keith urban, and Luke Combs.  The festival boasts a diverse array of artists, covering several musical genres. The 2025 lineup includes notable names such as Parker McCollum, Jordan Davis, Megan Moroney, Ludacris, Cody Jinks, Gary Allan, SHABOOZEY, and literally dozens more.

Away from the stages, there are also a variety of engaging activities.

A unique offering of the festival is the Conservation Village.  The area is interactive and dedicated to ocean conservation and sustainability. Festival goers can obtain a conservation passport, visit various partner booths to learn about ocean conservation efforts, and earn stamps. Completing the passport allows entry into a raffle for prizes, including tickets to the next year’s festival.

There is also exclusive Rock the Ocean gear at the Headquarters Tent.  100% of the proceeds from these sales are donated back to the conservation groups participating in the festival. There is a chill zone where attendees can engage in games like corn hole, get temporary tattoos made from compostable paper, and literally chill out from the hot Florida sun.

There are several food and drink choices that adhere to the festival’s commitment to sustainability.  All seafood served at the festival is sourced responsibly, aligning with the Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch program’s guidelines. Vendors prioritize using locally grown and organic ingredients, and attendees are encouraged to purchase 2025 Tortuga Commemorative Cups. These cups can be refilled at free water stations throughout the festival grounds.

Tortuga was the first major music festival to ban single-use plastic water bottles, offering water in recyclable cans instead. Additionally, plastic straws have been eliminated in favor of ocean-friendly paper straws available upon request. Comprehensive recycling and composting programs are in place, including the collection of cans, paper, plastic, wood, and even cigarette butts. These efforts have diverted over 600 tons of waste from landfills. As well, surplus food and supplies from the festival are donated to local charity-based organizations, ensuring that leftover resources benefit the South Florida community.

And beyond the incredible concerts on the stages, there are themed areas that offer unique experiences, including scenic spots throughout the festival grounds that are the perfect backdrops for photos.

The 2025 Tortuga Music Festival promises a weekend filled with music, education, and eco-friendly initiatives, ensuring that attendees have a memorable and impactful experience.
