GTA 6 Gets a Real-Life Launch Festival: Travis Scott, Cardi B and Justice Play Miami on November 21

Rockstar is taking Vice City's soundtrack off the screen. On Monday, November 9, 2026, the studio announced on X Grand Theft Auto VI: The Festival, a one-day live event on November 21 at Mana Wynwood in Miami, two days after the game launches. Rockstar calls it "a special live event... to celebrate the launch of GTAVI, featuring a star-studded lineup of artists from the game and the official soundtrack." Gematsu reports the show is co-hosted by Rockstar and Sony Interactive Entertainment, with two stages of music.

The lineup

According to Gematsu and VGC, the confirmed acts are:

  • Cactus Jack presents Travis Scott, Don Toliver, Kodak Black and Sofaygo
  • Cardi B
  • Ca7riel & Paco Amoroso
  • Justice (DJ set)
  • Metro Boomin
  • Nick León B2B DJ Python
  • Prospa B2B Skream
  • Rauw & Friends
  • Suero
  • Tainy
  • The Dare B2B Fcukers (DJ set)

Travis Scott's presence is no surprise after the Cactus Jack x Rockstar Nike Air Force 1 sample surfaced last week. Justice is also a natural fit: VGC notes the French duo's 30-track Grand Theft Auto VI: Original Score follows on December 11, while the 34-track GTA VI: The Album lands on November 19 with the game, as we covered in our radio stations breakdown.

GamingBible adds that the event is produced by the team behind III Points, the annual festival that already runs at Mana Wynwood.

How the ticket lottery works

You can't simply buy a ticket. The official festival page lays out a lottery run by Laylo, with tickets sold through DICE:

  • Entries close Tuesday, November 10 at 4 p.m. ET (one entry per person).
  • Winners are drawn at random and texted a code by 7 p.m. ET on November 10.
  • Ticket sales open Wednesday, November 11 at 12 p.m. ET, first-come, first-served, for code holders only.
  • You must be 17 or older to enter and to attend.
  • Codes are one-time use, can't be sold or traded, and "receiving a code does not guarantee tickets."

USA Today reports winners are limited to two tickets each, and that Rockstar advises entrants to create a DICE account after signing up so they aren't flagged as bots. Rockstar hasn't published ticket prices, and it hasn't said whether the show will be streamed for fans who can't get to Miami.

Why it matters

A real Miami festival is a fitting stunt for a game set in Leonida, Rockstar's take on Florida, and it continues a launch campaign that has already included sneakers, El Clásico pitchside ads and a planned Miami Beach takeover. It also puts the game's licensed music front and center the week the album drops. For most players, though, the November 19 launch and tomorrow's pre-load matter more.

What's next

  • November 10: Digital pre-load opens for pre-orders (212GB on PS5); festival lottery entries close at 4 p.m. ET
  • November 11, 12 p.m. ET: Festival tickets go on sale to lottery winners
  • November 19: GTA VI launches on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, alongside GTA VI: The Album
  • November 21: Grand Theft Auto VI: The Festival at Mana Wynwood, Miami
  • December 11: Justice's Grand Theft Auto VI: Original Score releases, per VGC
