Rough Trade favourites British Sea Power are headlining and hosting the new Fort Rox festival in Brighton on August 12...which takes place in a really big fort. Like, huge.

Each year a different band will curate the festival, which takes place in Newhaven Fort, to show off the best of national and local talent and BSP have chosen The Duke Spirit, My Latest Novel and Aloud Festivals pop favourites The Research, as well as Brighton bands Charlottefield and Jacob's Stories to come and play. An under-18s band from the Starfish Music Project will kick off proceedings, and they'll also be chosen by the Sea Power overlords. There will also be wartime swing bands, tents with exciting things and guided tours of the Fort's walls which should be considerably better than inspecting Mother Aloud's new wallpaper. Again.

It runs from 12pm-6pm, costs £10 and ticketholders must be 14 years or over. 14-16-year-olds need an adult with them as well, with one adult to every three 'youths'. Er, suddenly we're a bit scared. But we're going, so we'll tell you all about it as long as we don't get hospitalised.
