The Tortuga Music Festival is focused on saving the world—or at least the 71 percent of it that is covered by oceans.
The second annual Rock the Ocean’s Tortuga Music Festival will take place on April 12 and 13 on Fort Lauderdale Beach, Florida. Luke Brian and Eric Church will headline the concert as well as Train, Sheryl Crow, Billy Currington, Slightly Stoopid, Ziggy Marley, among many others.
Three concert stages will be set up on the beach, along with a Conservation Village offering educational and interactive healthy-ocean activities for festival attendees.
The goal of the festival is to promote public awareness of issues that are plaguing the oceans such as reef degradation, overfishing and sharkfinning.
Last year’s festival was attended by more than 25,000 people and more than $70,000 was donated to ocean conservation. This year’s early bird tickets have been sold out, but tickets can still be purchased online here.
