Rockstar Games and PlayStation are putting on a one-night concert in Miami two days after Grand Theft Auto VI launches. It is called Grand Theft Auto VI: The Festival, it takes place on Saturday, November 21, 2026, and tickets were sold through a lottery that has already closed. Here is the lineup, how tickets worked, the rules for getting in, and what has not been announced as of November 13.
When and where is the GTA 6 festival?
The event is at Mana Wynwood, 318 NW 23rd Street, Miami, Florida, according to the Greater Miami and Miami Beach tourism listing, which gives a 4:00 PM start. ActivePlayer and Music Times agree on the date and venue; neither gives a start time, and no stage timetable has been published. The festival is presented by Rockstar Games and PlayStation and produced by the team behind Miami’s III Points festival. It has two stages.
The game itself is scheduled for November 19 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, so the festival falls on the first weekend after launch. Our GTA 6 release date guide tracks the confirmed launch details.
Who is playing the GTA 6 festival?
The three sources list the same acts:
- Cactus Jack presents Travis Scott, with Don Toliver, Kodak Black and SoFaygo
- Cardi B
- Ca7riel & Paco Amoroso
- Justice (DJ set)
- Metro Boomin
- Tainy
- Rauw & Friends
- Suero
- Nick León back-to-back with DJ Python
- Prospa back-to-back with Skream
- The Dare back-to-back with Fcukers (DJ set)
ActivePlayer describes the acts as artists from the game and its soundtrack, and says the full poster is on Rockstar’s Instagram. We have not seen that poster, so treat the list above as what these outlets report. Set times have not been released.
How did GTA 6 festival tickets work?
Tickets were not sold in an open sale. The process, as the sources describe it:
- Fans entered a free lottery run by Laylo. It allowed one entry per person and closed on Tuesday, November 10, at 4 p.m. Eastern.
- Winners were drawn at 7 p.m. Eastern that evening and sent a purchase code by text.
- Code holders could buy on DICE from noon Eastern on Wednesday, November 11.
A code only allowed a purchase attempt, subject to availability. It did not guarantee a ticket. Entrants had to use the same email address and phone number for the lottery and for their DICE account. Each buyer could take at most two tickets, and tickets cannot be transferred to someone else.
The Greater Miami tourism listing gives a starting price of $60. ActivePlayer does not list a price and Music Times says it did not find one on the festival page it reviewed, so check DICE for current prices. Music Times adds that people who missed the lottery can join a waitlist from the festival page, but that the page does not promise another sale.
Age limit, ID and getting in
- Attendees must be at least 17 and bring valid photo ID, per the tourism listing and Music Times.
- Alcohol purchases are limited to ages 21 and over, according to the tourism listing.
- There is no on-site parking and rideshare is encouraged. Entry is through NW 5th Avenue (the sources describe it as 5th or Fifth Avenue).
What has not been announced
- A stage schedule or set times.
- Whether the show will be streamed or whether anything from it ties into the game. None of the sources mention either.
- Any further ticket release beyond the waitlist.
If you are following launch week, the other dated items are the PS5 and Xbox pre-load window, which opened on November 10 (see our pre-load guide), and the launch itself on November 19. Prices and editions are covered in our GTA 6 price and editions post. Details here can change, so confirm anything you plan to pay for on DICE or Rockstar’s own channels.
