Music : All Music




Well well people, I don’t know about you but I don’t think we are gonna find anything that’ll match this as a mark for the end of summer! With such a wide variety of music, across three arenas, there most definitely will be something for everyone! Outside will supply an absolutely mad progression of all styles of House music. The Contact Zone will be slamming the most upfront tunes in all things hard and the Retrospective of Rave room will be pasting the walls with old skool flavours for all the vintage clubbers out there!

It’s all made clear with a simple application of mathematics…

1 Fort + 600 up for it clubbers + 31 top DJ’s across 10 hours = ONE RIGHT OLE KNEES UP I SAY!

Let’s not forget the Hog roast BBQ will be available alongside other food. A
Fully licensed Bar , Awesome views , A maze of Dungeons and Tunnels plus the awesome Fortress itself!

Listen to me south coast! You won’t have experienced anything like this! I hope you’re all ready to OVERLOAD @ The Fort!!

THE FORTRESS



A massive man-made island, sitting a mile offshore from Portsmouth Harbour, The Fortress is one of the most unusual military buildings ever constructed and one of the most unique venues to be found anywhere.



The Fortress was designed to defend the anchorage and the inner approaches to Portsmouth Harbour from French Invaders, and act to provide a secondary line of defence against light draft vessels that had managed to pass the heavier fortified outer defensive forts.



Virtually unaltered since 1870, The Fortress offers an unrivalled atmosphere and some of the most spectacular views in the UK.

The Special ltd Recruits will board on our transporter @ approx 2pm on Sunday 27th August ( Bank Holiday Monday - Nice!! )

Then the new up 4 it troops will be taken a mile out to sea to the Desegnated Drop off point

Once aboard the military Strong Hold , Sonic Defences will be enabled in 3 areas

Giving a high range of musical weaponary against even the most discerning enemy

DJs & Live music ( Percussion , Bongos , Sax and trombone )
From oldskool 2 house 2 funky 2 tech 2 breaks 2 electro 2 techno 2 trance 2 hardstyle 2 hardcore 2 rave

Our Forces will stage a 10 hr musical onslaught on the miltary stronghold
utilising all the unique areas of this building from the battlements to the dungeons , no place will be left un-explored by our troops until the area is secure ..... and some !!
