DICE operates ticket sales through exclusive Laylo codes in a drawing of eligible participants. To avoid removal as a bot, entrants must set up a DICE account right after entering, with the same email address and phone number.
Entry is limited to people 17 or older, and buying or drinking alcohol requires being 21 or older. Everyone must show valid photo ID and undergo a TSA-style search. Opaque bags bigger than 6 by 9 inches are barred, every bag is searched, and no on-site parking exists. The entrance is 5th Avenue at 318 NW 23rd St, Miami, FL 33127, and rideshare is strongly encouraged.
Guests with mobility disabilities can use accessible routes and viewing areas. A free accessibility wristband is available at the ADA Hub on-site, with no pre-registration required. The Accessibility Services Hub is inside the entrance near Guest Services and Lost and Found, and its exact location will appear on the event map when the map comes out. The ground is asphalt and grass, there is no transportation provided, and wheelchairs or scooters are not rented, though guests may bring crutches, walkers, and canes.
The festival partners with PlayStation, and the creators of III Points produced it, with music across two stages that run nonstop at Mana Wynwood. Rockstar can refuse entry to anyone, and security decides on items at the door without pre-approving them.

Grand Theft Auto VI comes out Nov. 19, 2026 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, with preloading starting Nov. 10 and 212 GBs of storage required. GTA 6: The Album arrives Nov. 19 with 34 new original tracks, and Travis Scott and Keith Richards are among the artists. Grand Theft Auto VI: Original Score arrives Dec. 11 with 30 tracks, and Justice composed them.
Soundtrack songs already out include Travis Scott’s RHYNO and Justice’s Flower in a Hurricane. Rockstar has also shown fans the game’s radio stations, which will include many artists and genres. The launch countdown stood at ten days on Nov. 9, 2026, and the festival falls on launch weekend.
On Nov. 18, 2026, Rockstar hosts A Night in Vice City, a Miami Heat versus Milwaukee Bucks game at Kaseya Center at 7 p.m. ET on ESPN, one day before Grand Theft Auto VI launches. The team will go by the Vice City Heat and will play on a new court. A pink and blue Vice City Edition uniform for the Miami Heat first appeared in the 2017-18 season.
The jersey for sale is black, with pink and white trim. It reads Vice City across the chest and has a palm-filled VI patch, with a tag that carries the Rockstar, Heat, and Cactus Jack names. The right chest shows Travis Scott’s flipped Swoosh, with six pink stars and Cactus Jack branding near the hem, while the on-court jersey hides a subtle GTA map pattern inside the Heat lettering because NBA uniform rules require it. The Swingman jersey and shorts go on sale in limited quantities on Nov. 18.
Rockstar’s takeover of Miami includes billboards, posters, and bus decals around the world, plus a GTA-branded Miami Heat arena, in-universe beers at bars, and a Vice City blimp. The campaign also includes Vice City banners and a rebranded Kaseya Center. Miami nightclubs have become GTA clubs.
IGN estimates Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders at $750 million. On Nov. 5, 2026, the game sat 14 days from release in the United States, following 13 years of waiting. Rockstar has put out what it calls the final trailer, and the trailer has aired constantly on TV since debuting online.
Vice City takes its inspiration from Miami, and Rockstar has promoted the game with local businesses and sports teams. Insider Gaming said the lineup accounts for a fair share of the game’s radio stations.
