If one or both parties choose not to renew they’d have to close attractions/dining/shopping immediately at end of term. They would then have 90 days to remove all brand recognizable theming (which we know is as detailed as the brickwork based on the films’ set design).

They could retheme the rides and lands and reopen them later, but the must first remove “architecture, equipment, props, dressings, stages, scenery, entrance gates, character representations, and any and all uses of the Licensed Property from rides, attractions, stores and any other themed areas.”

Not to go too far off topic but I wonder how much of the Van Helsing plans were repurposed for Monsters Unchained?

Hagrid turning into Hugh Jackman wouldn't be the hardest change.

There’s nothing in the contract that states the license must be be renewed just because they’re adding more or improving Potter attractions -BUT- as business practice, it would be unwise of WB to cancel any of their contracts while Universal is showing they’re willing to continue to make investment in the property THEREFORE it’s in Universal’s best interest to continue to invest to ensure they’re looked upon favorably every time a renewal period is up, which for the older lands like Hogsmeade is every few years now.

Nothing contractual about it, but helps ensure security.

Also worth noting that each land after Diagon is technically governed by its own licensing agreement, so WB could theoretically cancel a contract for one area when renewal is up if they choose to do so, while keeping the other areas’ contracts in place.

This sounds more like cope on why universal keeps investing in Potter than anything.

Butterbeer.
Wands.

That's 90%+ of the motivation of continued investment.

Wow. Has there been a refurb like this for the castle before?

Would suck if this was your once in a lifetime vacation and Hogwarts was wrapped up like that. Wonder how long it will take.
