Tortuga Music Festival

A three-day country and rock music festival held right on Fort Lauderdale Beach. Big headliners, ocean views, and a crowd that's there to have a good time. It's one of the biggest events on the Fort Lauderdale calendar each spring.

When

Held annually in April, typically over a full weekend. Check the official Tortuga Music Festival site for lineup announcements and ticket sales, which usually open months in advance.

Where

Fort Lauderdale Beach Park, along A1A. Our Lauderdale-by-the-Sea properties are just minutes from the festival grounds.

What to Expect

Multiple stages with country, rock, and roots acts performing throughout each day. Food trucks, craft beer, and ocean breezes. The festival also has a conservation component, with a portion of proceeds going to ocean and marine life causes.

Tips for Guests

Tickets sell out, especially for the full weekend passes, so buy early. The beach gets packed during festival days, so plan your beach time for mornings before the crowds arrive. Rideshare is the easiest way in and out.
