Grand Theft Auto VI: The Festival brings the music of Vice City to life in Miami on November 21, 2026. Tickets are not available to the general public. Only people who won a code through Rockstar’s pre-sale lottery can buy them, and the sale opens today, Wednesday, November 11, at 12 PM ET (9 AM PT / 5 PM UK) on DICE . The lottery closed on November 10 at 4 PM ET, and winners were contacted by text by 7 PM ET that same evening.
How the lottery system worked
This is not a normal ticket sale. Rockstar used a pre-sale lottery to decide who gets a chance to buy tickets. People had to sign up at the official festival website and create a DICE account using the exact same email address and phone number . The lottery was free to enter, and each person could submit only one entry.
Winners received a one-time code by SMS. That code unlocks the chance to buy tickets on November 11, but it does not guarantee tickets will still be available. The sale is first-come, first-served . Each code allows the purchase of a maximum of two tickets, and the codes cannot be sold or traded.
“The codes will ‘unlock the opportunity’ to buy tickets on Nov. 11 at 12 p.m., but do not guarantee tickets.”
People who did not win a code can still join a waitlist on the DICE app. DICE warns that receiving a code does not mean tickets are secured, and the tickets themselves are non-transferable.
Ticket price and age limit
The DICE listing shows tickets priced at $60 . The event is 17 and older only. Doors open at 4 PM ET on November 21 . Attendees must be at least 17 years old to enter.
Who is performing at the festival
The lineup pulls from the GTA VI soundtrack and features artists from hip-hop, electronic music, and Latin music. The festival has two stages with nonstop performances.
Cactus Jack presents Travis Scott headlines, with Don Toliver, Kodak Black, and Sofaygo joining that set. Cardi B, Metro Boomin, and Argentine duo Ca7riel & Paco Amoroso are also on the bill. Justice performs a DJ set, and the French duo is behind the GTA VI original score.
Other confirmed acts include Tainy, Rauw & Friends, Suero, Nick León B2B DJ Python, Prospa B2K Skream, and The Dare B2B Fcukers (DJ set).
Where the festival is happening
Mana Wynwood at 318 NW 23rd St. in Miami hosts the event . The festival is presented in partnership with PlayStation and produced by the creators of III Points, Miami’s established music festival held at the same venue .
Rideshare is strongly encouraged. There is no parking on-site, and designated drop-off points are set around the perimeter of the festival grounds.
Why this festival is happening
GTA VI launches on November 19, 2026, for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S . The festival lands two days after the game’s release, turning the launch into a real-world celebration of the music that shapes the game’s world of Vice City and the fictional state of Leonida .
Rockstar announced the festival on its Newswire on November 9, along with details about the game’s radio stations, the 34-song soundtrack album, and the original score . The festival is one part of a larger marketing push that includes a $3.9 million Miami-Dade County marketing and advertising package with GTA VI theming across the city .
What happens if you won a code but miss out
The DICE listing notes that a waitlist is available for people who did not secure tickets during the initial sale . The waitlist does not guarantee entry, and tickets are non-transferable, so any ticket bought through the sale is tied to the buyer . Rockstar has not announced a livestream for the event, so people outside Miami cannot watch the performances online through an official channel at this time.
