Kenny Chesney will perform at the first-ever Tortuga Music Festival scheduled for April 13-14 in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.

“I’ve been hearing about this festival for a while now and am excited to be a part of it,” Kenny says. “I grew up going to the beach every day when I was younger, so protecting the beaches and marine conservation have always been something close to my heart.”

Gary Allan, the Eli Young Band and Kip Moore will also perform at the festival.

A prominent rock artist will be unveiled as the event’s second headliner in the coming weeks.

Tickets to the festival go on sale Saturday (Dec. 15) at the festival’s website.
