Rockstar Games has announced Grand Theft Auto VI: The Festival, a one-day event at Mana Wynwood in Miami on 21 November, two days after the game’s scheduled release. The festival is planned to have two stages and is presented in partnership with PlayStation, with production by the team behind III Points.
The announced performers include Travis Scott, Cardi B, Don Toliver, Kodak Black, SoFaygo, Ca7riel and Paco Amoroso, and Metro Boomin. French electronic duo Justice are also on the bill for a DJ set; they contributed to the game’s score and soundtrack. Other names include Rauw & Friends, Suero and Tainy, alongside joint sets by The Dare with Fcukers, Nick León with DJ Python, and Prospa with Skream. The first report groups Scott, Toliver, Kodak Black and SoFaygo under the billing “Cactus Jack Presents”; the second highlights a selection of the artists rather than listing the full programme.
Tickets are to be allocated through a lottery. The first report gives the entry deadline as 10 November at 4 p.m. Eastern Time, sets a minimum age of 17 and a limit of one entry per person, and says selected entrants will receive a code before the general sale begins on 11 November at noon. The second report also describes a lottery and gives the sale date, but does not include those eligibility details or the precise times.
The coverage places the event in the context of the game’s launch, which both reports say is scheduled for 19 November. The second report ranges more widely, adding details about the planned accompanying album, in-game radio stations and recent game announcements. The first concentrates on the festival lineup and ticket process, and quotes the organisers’ description of it as a launch event featuring music associated with Vice City and Leonida.
Where outlets differ
From the full account, which is AI-written from the sources:
The first report provides a fuller lineup, including Suero, Tainy and the Cactus Jack Presents billing, as well as more complete lottery rules and timings. The second gives a shorter selection of performers and omits those rules, while adding broader background on the game’s music, radio stations and development.
Explained simply
Grand Theft Auto is a long-running video game series published by Rockstar Games. Its games tell fictional crime stories in open worlds inspired by real places; Grand Theft Auto VI is set in the imagined state of Leonida, which includes Vice City, a setting based on Miami.
The series often uses radio stations and music to help create the feel of its world. A live festival linked to the game brings that music theme into a real-world event, with performers from several genres. It connects the game’s launch with Miami’s music and entertainment scene.
