The VOID at Downtown Disney closed with all other shops in mid-March, and now it seems that it will remain permanently closed after receiving a Notice of Event Default and Lease Termination from the Walt Disney World Operating Participants Department following a licensing agreement breach.
The notice, dated June 30, 2020, was recently posted at the doors of the location, right over previous signage indicating the previous temporary closure. The notice cites a breach of the Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures license.
No longer tenants of the Downtown Disney District shopping and dining complex, The Void must cease all use of Disney IP, or intellectual property, through Star Wars: Secrets of the Empire and Ralph Breaks VR, plus any and all Disney promotional material, trademarks, and confidential information.
With the recent ban on indoor entertainment across Orange County due to rising rates of COVID-19 cases in California, it’s unlikely that The Void would’ve been able to reopen with the rest of the Downtown Disney District, but now it seems the days of the immersive Virtual Reality experience are over.
We do not know what the breach was, and the Disney locations are still listed on The VOID’s website. We will update you when more information is shared.
