GTA 6 launch festival in Miami on Nov 21: lineup, tickets
Rockstar and PlayStation will hold Grand Theft Auto VI: The Festival at Mana Wynwood on November 21. Ticket lottery entries close November 10 at 4 p.m. ET.
Rockstar Games will celebrate the launch of GTA 6 with a one-day music event, Grand Theft Auto VI: The Festival, on Saturday, November 21 at Mana Wynwood in Miami. That is two days after the game's November 19 release. Rockstar announced it on the Newswire on November 9, the day before the festival's ticket lottery closes.
Rockstar says the event is presented in partnership with PlayStation and produced by the creators of III Points, the Miami music festival. It runs on two stages and features artists from the game and its official soundtrack.
The lineup Rockstar lists: Cactus Jack presents Travis Scott, Don Toliver, Kodak Black and Sofaygo; Cardi B; Ca7riel and Paco Amoroso; Justice (DJ set); Metro Boomin; Nick León B2B DJ Python; Prospa B2B Skream; Rauw and Friends; Suero; Tainy; and The Dare B2B Fcukers (DJ set). Justice also composed the game's original score, and the music page lists the radio stations, the album and the score.
Tickets are not on open sale. Fans enter a lottery at gtavi-thefestival.miami, which needs an active DICE account. The festival site says entry is free, one entry per person, and entrants must be 17 or older to enter and to attend. Entries close on Tuesday, November 10 at 4 p.m. ET.
Winners are drawn at random and sent a code by text message by 7 p.m. ET on November 10. A code unlocks the chance to buy tickets on Wednesday, November 11 at 12 p.m. ET, first come, first served, with two tickets per code. The site says a code does not guarantee tickets, codes are single use and cannot be sold or traded, and the lottery is run by Laylo, Inc. Neither Rockstar nor the festival site has published a ticket price.
For anyone outside Miami, nothing about the game changes: digital pre-load opens November 10 and GTA 6 unlocks at midnight local time on November 19, Rockstar says, with the unlock time in your country on our timing page.
Correction, November 10: an earlier version of the opening paragraph was worded as if the November 9 announcement came after the game's release. The festival, not the announcement, falls two days after November 19.
