I don’t think I’ve ever seen this happen, folks. An entire music festival surrounding a single game? Nope, not to my knowledge. And it features some big artists, too. Naturally, you would expect the whole place to be themed according to Vice City the way we’ll experience it in GTA 6.

Rockstar announced the festival via their official Newswire. It takes place on November 21, 2026, at Mana Wynwood, Miami, “to celebrate the launch of GTA 6.”

Some of the artists include Cardi B, Justice, Metro Boomin, and so much more. Not that any of these mean anything to me, but I’d still love to be there. How often do we get to experience Vice City in real life? Never; that’s when.

But that’s not even the wildest part. Because, you see, tickets are not on sale yet. Get this: you need to enter a PRE-SALE LOTTERY in order to STAND A CHANCE to purchase tickets. What?! Talk about firsts; I’ve never heard of anything like this before.

So, you need to enter the lottery, and if you get drawn, you may only purchase two tickets. It’s a fantastic way to limit scalpers, of course. You would imagine, however, that they’ll be sending in tons of spam entries, but you’ll need to have an active DICE account with up-to-date information in order to enter. This sounds like it’ll combat the scalpers very nicely.

The lottery closes in a matter of hours, at 4PM ET, so you’d better move pretty fast if you want to enter. The news broke last night, while I was fast asleep (because time zones!).

Definitely having some FOMO here, but I hope some of you can make it and, if you do, definitely let us know what goes down!
