Rockstar Games have announced details of Grand Theft Auto 6: The Festival, which will celebrate the release of the game and host performances from Travis Scott, Cardi B and more.
The one-day event is taking place at Mana Wynwood in Miami on November 21 – just two days after GTA 6 finally drops, a long 13 years after its predecessor.
There will be two stages at the festival, each hosting performances from some of the big names from across the game and the official soundtrack. These include French electronic duo Justice, who composed the score and contributed multiple songs to the soundtrack, as well as Cardi B, Travis Scott, Ca7riel & Paco Amoroso, Don Toliver, Metro Boomin, Kodak Black, and SoFaygo.
DJ sets across the night will include Nick León B2B DJ Python, Prospa B2B Skream, Rauw & Friends and more, as well as The Dare B2B with F******.
Tickets will be available via a pre-sale lottery, and fans can sign up from now until tomorrow (Tuesday November 10) at 4pm local time. Those selected can then buy tickets from Wednesday (November 11).
Grand Theft Auto 6 will be available to pre-load from tomorrow, ahead of its release on November 19.
In the past couple of weeks, game developers Rockstar have revealed that the GTA 6 map is twice as big as the previous game, and that their next game won’t take eight years to develop due to the foundations laid while making the latest Grand Theft Auto.
The game is predicted to be the most expensive video game ever made and, according to International Business Times, 1.5million people will skip work on release day to play it.
An accompanying album featuring brand new tracks from some of the biggest artists in the world will launch alongside Grand Theft Auto 6 on November 19, and Rockstar have promised “the biggest and widest-ranging” selection of music through Grand Theft Auto 6’s in-game radio stations – with contributions from Travis Scott, Fred Again.., PinkPantheress, The Rolling Stones’ Keith Richards and more.
So far, six radio stations have been announced for the game too, including ‘Cocoteo FM’, hosted by Bad Bunny, and ‘The Chamber 106.6’, hosted by Slayer‘s King Kerry and Tom Araya. ‘Back Country Radio’ will be presented by Lana Del Rey and her husband Jeremy Dufrene, while Burna Boy runs ‘AfroBank FM’ Robyn is in charge of ‘Flash FM’.
A new wave of screenshots from the gameplay were shared by Rockstar last week, and you can find the full GTA 6 Launch Gallery here, and all of the confirmed songs for the game here.
