Rockstar Games Is Throwing a 'GTA 6' Launch Festival in Miami

Rockstar Games is marking the release of Grand Theft Auto VI with a live music festival in Miami, giving fans a chance to see artists from the game and its soundtrack perform just two days after the game goes on sale.The event, called Grand Theft Auto VI: The Festival, will take place November 21 at Mana Wynwood and is being presented in partnership with PlayStation.

Miami is a fitting host city given that the game takes place in Vice City, Rockstar’s fictional version of the Florida metropolis, and across the broader state of Leonida.The event will be produced by the team behind the III Points music festival and will run on two stages with music playing throughout the event.

The iconic French electronic music duo Justice will play a DJ set, and attendees can also catch a b2b from Skream and Prospa.The lineup includes Travis Scott, Don Toliver, Kodak Black, Cardi B, Ca7riel & Paco Amoroso, Metro Boomin and Tainy.

Music has long been a major part of the series, and Rockstar is leaning into that with a dedicated Music section on the game’s official site.It covers the in-game radio stations, Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album and the Grand Theft Auto VI: Original Score from Justice, with links to listen and pre-order vinyl and CD editions.

The festival lands right on the heels of the game itself, which arrives November 19 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.Pre-orders are available now.

Rockstar says Grand Theft Auto V has sold in more than 230 million units, and the franchise as a whole has sold nearly 475 million....
