Two days after launch, on November 21, 2026, the radio in Vice City gets a real stage. Rockstar and PlayStation are putting on Grand Theft Auto VI: The Festival at Mana Wynwood in Miami: two stages, Travis Scott with his Cactus Jack crew, Cardi B, Metro Boomin, and Justice behind the decks. Rockstar announced it on November 9. There’s no open sale. Every ticket goes through a lottery, and the entry window closes on Tuesday, November 10, at 4 p.m. ET.
Who plays, and what they have to do with the game
The poster lists eleven acts. Half of them already live inside GTA 6 in one way or another, and that’s the part I like: it’s less a celebrity party than the soundtrack walking out of the car speakers.
| On the poster | Link to GTA 6 |
|---|---|
| Cactus Jack presents Travis Scott, Don Toliver, Kodak Black, SoFaygo | Travis Scott sings RHYNO on The Album; Kodak Black turns up in a Launch Gallery screenshot |
| Cardi B | Track 19 on The Album |
| Ca7riel & Paco Amoroso | Sexy Magic, with PinkPantheress and Fred again.. |
| Justice (DJ set) | Composers of the original score and Flower in a Hurricane |
| Metro Boomin | That’s It, with Yung Lean and Future |
| Rauw & Friends | Rauw Alejandro’s Macacoa 2000 is on The Album |
| Nick León B2B DJ Python, Prospa B2B Skream, Suero, Tainy, The Dare B2B Fcukers (DJ set) | Club and DJ part of the night |
The full song list and editions are in our breakdown of GTA 6: The Album, and the bigger picture of the game’s music is on the soundtrack page. Travis Scott has been the loudest of the lot lately, he even showed off GTA-style Air Force 1s.
How to get a ticket
The official page puts the whole process in a few lines, and the timing is tight:
- Sign up for the lottery at gtavi-thefestival.miami before 4 p.m. ET on November 10 (9 p.m. UTC).
- Right after entering, create a DICE account with the same email and phone number. Otherwise the system can flag you as a bot and drop the entry.
- Winners are drawn at 7 p.m. ET the same evening.
- Sales for winners open on DICE on Wednesday, November 11, at 12 p.m. ET.
- Two tickets per person at most, and they can’t be transferred.
- Entry is 17+, alcohol 21+, and you need a photo ID. There’s no parking on site, so plan on a taxi or rideshare.
The festival is produced by the team behind III Points, Miami’s own music festival, and the venue sits at 318 NW 23rd St, with ticketholders coming in from 5th Avenue.
The poster art as a wallpaper
The poster is the kind of thing you want on your phone even without the names on it. Same sunset, same rays, same palms, just the bay and the skyline.
Download the wallpaper in full size (1613×2048).
As a technical artist, I’d point at the rays. They fan out from behind the skyline like stage lights cutting through haze, which is exactly how a festival looks from the crowd at sunset. In a game engine you’d fake that with volumetric light, and the trick only works when the source is hidden behind something solid. Here the towers do that job. It’s a game poster that already looks like a concert.
A week of Vice City in Miami
The festival closes a busy week. On November 18 the Heat play the Bucks as Vice City, on the 19th the game comes out, and on the 21st the people from its radio play Wynwood, Miami’s neighbourhood of murals and warehouses, a short drive from the real streets behind Vice City. If you win a code, you’ll be standing in the real city two days after you started driving around the made-up one, and I suspect a lot of the crowd will still be humming RHYNO from the car.
