Ludacris Takes the Sunset Stage at Tortuga Festival in Fort Lauderdale

Tortuga Festival 2025 kicked off with a bang, and opening day set the tone for an unforgettable weekend.

Right as the golden hour hit, Ludacris took the Sunset Stage—and the beach turned into an all-out party.

It was the perfect kickoff to the festival—and the energy doesn’t stop here. We’ve still got two more days of music, sun, and madness coming up. With a stacked lineup and this kind of crowd, I can already tell Tortuga 2025 is one for the books.
