OVERLOAD @ THE FORT - THE VENUE
-------------------------------------------------------------

If you have missed previous years deployments you dont know
what you are missing, the ultimate party at the most exclusive
summer events !!!

A massive man-made island, sitting a mile offshore from Portsmouth
Harbour, Overload @ The Fort 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,Overload @ The Fort offers unrivalled
atmosphere and some of the most spectacular views in the UK
