Tortuga Music Festival Increases Onsite Sustainability Initiatives

Rock The Ocean’s Tortuga Music Festival will take place for a seventh year in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, on April 12-14. Each year, the festival strives to build on its conservation and sustainability initiatives onsite. Efforts such as providing compostable service-ware, enforcing no plastic straws or sales of plastic water bottles, donating all leftover food and serving food that is responsibly caught and farmed, as well as encouraging fans to take alternative transportation to help reduce the emissions associated with fan travel, are some of the ways Tortuga encourages attendees to live in an environmentally and eco-friendly way, all in support of ocean conservation.

For the first time, Tortuga Music Festival will also introduce another way to reduce single-use plastic by offering fans the opportunity to purchase a limited-edition pint cup that can be used all weekend long. Attendees will have additional opportunities throughout the weekend to learn more about ocean conservation and sustainability, alongside ways to actively help #RockTheOcean at the festival’s onsite Conservation Village where they can interact with over 30 worldwide leaders in ocean conservation. Conservation Village also allows attendees to enjoy games, interactive touch tanks, cooking exhibitions and the latest in ocean technology.

The three-day, newly three-stage festival will provide fun-in-the-sun to fans throughout the weekend with news that Jason Aldean, Kenny Chesney & Thomas Rhett will headline this year’s festival alongside Danielle Bradbery, Kane Brown, Sheryl Crow, Delta Rae, Lindsay Ell, Morgan Evans, Flo Rida, Chris Janson, Jillian Jacqueline, Joan Jett And The Blackhearts, Cody Johnson, Elle King, Dustin Lynch, Maddie & Tae, Midland, Maren Morris, David Lee Murphy, Carly Pearce, Cassadee Pope, RaeLynn, Michael Ray, Trombone Shorty, Mitchell Tenpenny, The Wailers and more will perform across the weekend.
