🍊 ORANGE CRUSH FESTIVAL® 2026
THE #1 CULTURAL TOUR IN AMERICA
By Staff | National Culture Desk
Orange Crush Festival® didn’t follow the Spring Break playbook — it rewrote it. In 2026, the trademark-protected cultural juggernaut expands into a multi-city, multi-week takeover that blends nightlife, beach culture, creators, alumni, and motorsports into the most visible youth-driven tour in the country.
Here’s how every stop becomes a cover story.
🌴 ORANGE CRUSH® MIAMI
South Beach | March 13–16, 2026
“Where Spring Break Officially Begins”
If Spring Break had a release date, it would be stamped South Beach — and Orange Crush® owns it. Miami launches the tour with sun-heavy days, creator-driven visuals, and nightlife energy that sets the national tone.
This isn’t a warm-up. Miami is the first chart-topper of the season — where culture, cameras, and coastlines collide and announce what the rest of the country is about to feel.
🔶 ORANGE CRUSH® SAVANNAH
April 9–13, 2026
“The Weekend That Built the Movement”
Savannah isn’t just a stop — it’s the origin story.
The Historic Orange Crush® Weekend is the foundation of HBCU Spring Break culture, now officially structured and elevated without losing its soul. Alumni return. New generations arrive. And the city becomes the cultural capital of April.
This is where legacy meets longevity — and where Orange Crush® proves why no imitation survives.
🍊 ORANGE CRUSH® FRIDAY NIGHT
April 10 | Savannah
“The Savannah Ignition Point”
Every great tour has a moment where the lights come on.
Orange Crush® Friday Night is that moment — the official kickoff where early arrivals, locals, creators, and alumni converge in a controlled, upscale nightlife environment. Celebrity DJs, artist appearances, and packed VIPs don’t just start the weekend — they set the direction.
By midnight, everyone knows where Spring Break lives.
🌴 FREE ORANGE CRUSH® PUBLIC BEACH BASH
Tybee Island | April 11 (Day)
“The Image That Defines Spring Break”
No tickets. No velvet ropes. Just culture.
The Tybee Island Beach Bash is the most recognizable daytime moment in HBCU Spring Break history. Thousands gather on the sand as music, fashion, reunions, and viral content transform the shoreline into a national visual.
If Spring Break had a cover photo — this would be it.
🔥 ORANGE CRUSH® SATURDAY NIGHT
April 11 | Savannah
“Where Attendance Becomes Tradition”
Saturday night is where Orange Crush® separates itself.
After a full day on the beach, the crowd funnels back into Savannah for the most in-demand night of Week 1. Surprise guests. Headlining performances. Influencer-heavy energy. Wall-to-wall VIP.
This is the night people reference years later — the one that turns stories into legend.
🎤 CRUSH THE MIC™ @ Henry St Bistro, Savannah GA
April 16 | Savannah
“The Stage Where What’s Next Steps Forward”
Crush The Mic™ isn’t a showcase — it’s a launchpad.
Artists, performers, and creators step into real rooms with real audiences already tuned into Spring Break energy. Cameras roll. Content circulates. Connections stick.
This is where Orange Crush® proves it doesn’t just celebrate culture — it creates futures.
😈 FREAKNIK ’26 @ Henry St Bistro, Savannah GA
April 17 | Savannah
“Nostalgia With Pressure”
FREAKNIK ’26 taps into memory while delivering modern execution.
Alumni return. Energy sharpens. The crowd is older, louder, and intentional. Curated capacity and heavy DJ pressure make this one of the most explosive nightlife nights of the entire tour.
This isn’t a throwback — it’s a reminder.
🍊 ORANGE CRUSH® TYBEE
April 18 (Day)
“Why the City Can’t Look Away”
Week 2 doesn’t slow down — it stays visible.
The Beach Bash returns to Tybee Island, capturing extended travelers and fresh arrivals while keeping Orange Crush® visually dominant across Spring Break season. Content floods timelines. Groups reconnect.
Orange Crush® remains unavoidable.
👙 ABC ’26 (Anything But Clothes) @ Henry St Bistro, Savannah GA
April 18 (Night)
“The Aftermath at Full Volume”
ABC ’26 is where the aftermath peaks.
Creator-heavy attendance, elite VIP access, and special guest performances push this night into top-tier Spring Break status. With fewer distractions and a fully activated crowd, this is where the energy spends big and stays late.
This is why people don’t leave early.
🚗 CRUSH THE BLOCK®
Allenhurst, GA | April 19
“The Victory Lap”
No cooldown. No quiet ending.
Crush The Block® closes Orange Crush Festival® with motorsports culture, outdoor celebration, and unrestricted movement on private property. Cars, bikes, ATVs, pools, and music stretch Spring Break into its final release.
This isn’t an ending — it’s a statement.
💦 CRUSH ATLANTA POOL PARTY WEEKEND
May 30–31
“Spring Break Goes Luxury”
Orange Crush® extends into summer with an Atlanta mansion takeover designed for exclusivity, creators, and alumni. Poolside energy, invite-driven access, and luxury environments show how the brand scales beyond the beach.
Orange Crush® isn’t seasonal — it’s strategic.
