The Tortuga Music Festival has announced the lineup for its 13th annual event, with Post Malone, Riley Green, and Kenny Chesney are set to headline the 2026 edition of the fest, taking place April 10–12 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
Chesney, who also headlined the first-ever Tortuga Festival in 2013, will mark his fifth time leading the lineup. Chesney said in a statement: “I love everything about Tortuga, starting with that very first year! To be on the Atlantic Ocean with all that beach, the sea to one side and A1A to the other is everything this music is made of — and the people who’ve been coming out every time we’ve played there are my kind of people. Work hard, play harder and have fun while loving everyone in the space is a good way to be, and I can’t wait to get there next April.”
The popular beachfront festival features a mix of country, rock, and pop music artists, with the 2026 festival performers scheduled to take the stage including: Afroman, Graham Barham, Chayce Beckham, The Band Loula, Colbie Caillat, Ashley Cooke, Preston Cooper, Adam David, Russell Dickerson, Hunter Flynn, Flatland Cavalry, The Fray, Cole Goodwin, Solon Holt, Tyler Hubbard, Greylan James, Uncle Kracker, Mary Kutter, Lakeview, G. Love and Special Sauce, Dustin Lynch, McCoy Moore, Lukas Nelson, Elizabeth Nichols, Emily Ann Roberts, Owen Riegling, DJ Rock, Josh Ross, Rhys Rutherford, Dee Jay Silver, Amanda Shires, Shane Smith and the Saints, Sons of Legion, Brittney Spencer, Surfer Girl, Buffalo Traffic Jam, Chandler Walters, Clay Walker, Jack Wharff Band, Brandon Wisham, The Wheeland Brothers, and Dwight Yoakam.
Tortuga also continues its commitment to ocean conservation through its partnership with Rock The Ocean. Each year, the event raises money and awareness for pressing marine and coastal issues. Festivalgoers can visit Rock The Ocean’s Conservation Village on-site to learn about ongoing environmental initiatives and ways to contribute. To date, the festival has raised more than six million dollars to support ocean preservation efforts.
