GTA 6 Marketing: Every Billboard, Blimp and Mural So Far
Every real-world GTA 6 ad so far: the Vice City sign in Miami, the Goodyear blimp, modded cars, the Brooklyn and Paris murals and the Spotify billboards.
By JansherPublished Confirmed5 min read

Rockstar’s real-world GTA 6 campaign is underway, and most of it is in Miami. As of October 21, 2026, it includes a “Welcome to Vice City” sign on the Miami Heat’s arena, a Goodyear blimp in Vice City colours, modded cars on Miami streets, and murals in New York and Paris. More is booked before the November 19 launch.
Photos belong to the people and outlets that took them, so we link to them in the See it column and the clips below instead of copying them.

What each one means
- The Kaseya Center sign cost Rockstar about $975,000, paid to Miami-Dade County, which owns the arena.
- The blimp is a real Goodyear airship, and NBC 6 South Florida filmed it over Miami on October 15.
- The cars are real cars styled as in-game vehicles, including a Vice City police Lamborghini. Rockstar hasn’t commented on them. Our cars guide has the in-game versions.
- The Brooklyn mural sits on the same corner Rockstar used for a GTA 5 mural in 2013.
- The Spotify billboards don’t mean there’s a partnership. Neither Spotify, Rockstar nor Take-Two has confirmed one. More on the music in our soundtrack post.
- Miami Beach voted 4–3 on September 10 to let the city negotiate. We haven’t seen a signed contract, so the beach chairs stay Reported.
- Not everyone in Miami is on board. Miami-Dade Sheriff Rosie Cordero-Stutz objected to a wider county plan that included airport and train ads.
Times Square wasn’t Rockstar
A GTA 6 ad in Times Square went viral, but it wasn’t a Rockstar campaign. It was a YouTube Gaming promo that ran in May 2025, around Trailer 2, and RockstarINTEL and Gameranx both traced the clips to that promo.
FAQ
Is there a GTA 6 blimp?
Yes. A Goodyear blimp in Vice City colours left Ohio around October 12, and NBC 6 South Florida filmed it over Miami on October 15.
Where is the Welcome to Vice City sign?
On the roof of the Kaseya Center, the Miami Heat’s arena in downtown Miami. It went up on September 22.
Is Spotify partnered with GTA 6?
Not officially. Spotify-logo billboards with GTA 6 artwork went up in New York, Los Angeles and Miami on September 16, but no partnership has been confirmed.
Will there be more GTA 6 ads before launch?
Yes. The Heat play as “Vice City” on November 18, the night before launch, and the Miami Beach and downtown Miami branding runs through December 31.
