Getting to Grand Theft Auto VI: The Festival in Miami
Plan your trip early, because the festival has no parking on site. Rockstar strongly encourages rideshare, and designated drop-off points are set around the perimeter of the grounds. Every ticketholder enters through 5th Avenue, so look for that entrance when you arrive.
Who is performing at the GTA 6 festival
The festival runs across two stages and features artists from the game and its official soundtrack. It celebrates the music of Vice City and Leonida, two places in the game. Rockstar has announced these performers:
- 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)
The announcement names the performers only, without set times or stage assignments. A few listings use a term that may be new to you: B2B means back to back, when two DJs play one set together.

How to enter the GTA 6 festival ticket lottery
Tickets aren't open to everyone. Entry runs through a lottery operated by Laylo, Inc., and DICE handles ticket sales for people who receive a code. The process has four steps:
- Enter the lottery at gtavi-thefestival.miami by Tuesday, November 10, 2026, at 4 p.m. ET. No purchase is necessary, and each person can enter only once.
- Right after you enter, create a DICE account using the exact same email address and phone number you used for the lottery. This keeps the system from flagging you as a bot and removing you from the lottery.
- Watch for a text message. Winners are drawn at random from eligible entries and contacted by SMS with a code by 7 p.m. ET on November 10. The odds depend on how many eligible entries come in.
- If you receive a code, use it on DICE starting Wednesday, November 11, 2026, at 12 p.m. ET. Sales are first come, first served while tickets last, and each buyer can purchase up to two.
Entering doesn't guarantee a code, and having a code doesn't guarantee a ticket, because tickets are limited. Each code works once, can't be sold or traded, and has no cash value. Tickets can't be transferred to someone else either.
Age, ID and entry rules for Grand Theft Auto VI: The Festival
You must be 17 or older to attend, and 21 or older to buy or consume alcohol. Valid photo ID is required, so check that yours is accepted before the day.
- Security: Buying a ticket means agreeing to a TSA-style search, which can include emptying pockets and bags, a full pat-down and possibly removing shoes. Bags can be searched on entry or at any time during the festival, and the organizers can refuse entry to anyone.
- Bags: Non-clear backpacks, purses, crossbody bags and other bags larger than 6 x 9 inches aren't allowed, though clear bags and hydration packs have their own rules.
- Prohibited items: Outside food and drink, glass, cans, drones, pets, weapons of any kind and professional recording equipment are not allowed.
- Festival rules: There is no re-entry and no camping. Moshing, crowd-surfing and stage-diving are also not allowed.
The venue is navigable for guests with mobility disabilities, and wheelchairs, scooters, crutches, walkers and canes are permitted. Guests who need services related to a disability or injury must stop at the Accessibility Services Hub just inside the entrance to get a free wristband, with no pre-registration required. Accessible viewing areas are available at designated stages for guests with disabilities and one companion.
