Where to stay for FOS with nightlife?

[Craikeybaby]

I've booked tickets for FOS with a group of friends, now need to sort accomodation. We want somewhere where we can go out for a few drinks, ideally somewhere a bit lively. Is Portsmouth going to be our best bet?

We're only at FOS on the Saturday.

Thanks. That will help narrow my search down a bit.

We've ended up in Southampton - anything in Portsmouth was looking really expensive. Glad I didn't leave it any later to book!
