2017 Tortuga Music Festival Line-Up Announced

The full line-up for the 2017 Tortuga Music Festival in Fort Lauderdale, Florida has now been announced. The event takes place April 7 – 9, 2017 at Fort Lauderdale Beach Park.

Headliners for the event are country music superstars Kenny Chesney, Chris Stapleton, and Luke Bryan. All three are award-winning performers who can pack venues all on their own. But they’ll have lots of help keeping the crowds entertained at Tortuga. The rest of the line-up includes Alan Jackson, Darius Rucker, Brett Eldredge, Dustin Lynch, Slightly Stoopid, Old Dominion, Maren Morris, Granger Smith, Kane Brown, Nelly, Michael Ray, Locash, Daya, G. Love & Special Sauce, Drake White & The Big Fire, Brett Young, Luke Combs, Chris Lane, Raelynn, Brooke Eden, High Valley, Steve Maokler Delta Rae, Brandon Lay, Russel Dickerson, Ashley McBryde, Jon Langston, Jordan Davis, Marcus King Band, Quaker City Night Hawks, DJ Rock, and DJ Bad Ash.

This is the fifth year for this three-day beachfront festival. The event gets its name from the Tortuga sea turtles that nest along the south Florida coast. The Conservation Village at the festival site aims to increase awareness of issues facing the ocean environment.

Those who were willing to take purchase tickets early and take a gamble on the line-up saved some cash. Those discounted advance tickets are sold out, but regular general admission and regular VIP admission tickets are still available for sale at the Tortuga Music Festival website.
