Rockstar is throwing a one-day music festival in Miami to celebrate the launch of GTA 6, and the only way in is a ticket lottery that closes today, November 10, at 4 p.m. ET. Confirmed Grand Theft Auto VI: The Festival takes place on Saturday, November 21, two days after the game comes out, at Mana Wynwood in Miami. Rockstar and PlayStation present it together, and Travis Scott, Cardi B, Metro Boomin and Justice are on the lineup.
Rockstar says the festival celebrates “the music of Vice City and Leonida”, with artists from the game and its official soundtrack. It’s produced by the team behind Miami’s III Points festival and runs two stages of music. All the details below come from Rockstar’s official festival page.
Who is playing
Confirmed The lineup, as Rockstar lists it:
- Cactus Jack presents Travis Scott, Don Toliver, Kodak Black and Sofaygo

- Prospa b2b Skream

Rockstar hasn’t said which songs from the game will be played, or which of these artists appear on the in-game radio. Our GTA 6 trailer songs page lists the music Rockstar has used so far.
How the ticket lottery works
You can’t simply buy a ticket. Confirmed Rockstar says tickets are sold through DICE, using exclusive codes that Laylo hands out in a draw of everyone who entered.
| Step | When (Eastern Time) |
|---|---|
| Lottery closes | Tuesday, November 10, 4 p.m. ET |
| Winning entries drawn | Tuesday, November 10, 7 p.m. ET |
| Tickets on sale for winners | Wednesday, November 11, 12 p.m. ET |
- Enter the lottery with the “Sign Up for Ticket Lottery” button on Rockstar’s festival page before 4 p.m. ET today. That’s 1 p.m. PT, 9 p.m. in the UK.
- Create a DICE account straight away, using exactly the same email address and phone number as your lottery entry. Rockstar warns that entries without a matching DICE account can be flagged as bots and removed.
- If you win, you’ll get a code to buy tickets on DICE from 12 p.m. ET on November 11.
Each buyer can get two tickets at most, and tickets can’t be transferred to someone else. Not announced Rockstar hasn’t published ticket prices, set times or opening hours yet, and Kotaku notes the same. Nothing on Rockstar’s page says the festival will be streamed.
Rules for the day
Confirmed From the festival page:
- Age: you must be 17 or older to get in, and 21 or older to buy or drink alcohol. Bring valid photo ID: a government driver’s license or ID card, or a passport. Digital IDs, school IDs and expired IDs aren’t accepted.
- Getting there: Mana Wynwood is at 318 NW 23rd St, Miami, FL 33127, and everyone enters through 5th Avenue. There’s no parking on site, so Rockstar strongly suggests a rideshare.
- Security: expect a full bag search and pat-down. Clear bags up to 12 x 6 x 12 inches and small clutch bags are allowed; drones, aerosols and costumes that look like police, fire or medical uniforms are not.
Why Miami
Vice City, the main city in GTA 6, is Rockstar’s take on Miami, so the festival brings the game’s setting to the real city two days after launch. Analysis With two-ticket limits and a lottery, expect far more entries than places. If you want to go, enter before 4 p.m. ET and set up DICE straight after.
Common questions
Do I need to own GTA 6 to enter?
Not announced Rockstar’s page doesn’t say you need to own or preorder the game. The only rules it lists are the age limit, the two-ticket maximum and the matching DICE account.
Can I go if I don’t live in the US?
Nothing on Rockstar’s page limits the lottery to US residents, and it accepts foreign passports as ID at the door. You would still need to get to Miami for November 21 yourself.
When does GTA 6 come out?
On November 19, 2026, at midnight local time, on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Preloading is already open; see how to preload GTA 6 and the release time for your country.
