HBC - Commercial Opportunity - Elstree Film Studio

Elstree Studios is a wholly owned and highly successful subsidiary of Hertsmere Borough Council. From its Borehamwood base, Elstree Studios is proud to host major television and film productions which have included Strictly Come Dancing, The Crown, Big Brother, The Danish Girl, Paddington and Suffragette

As part of the next stage of this exciting journey, Hertsmere Borough Council has already decided to build a 21,000 square feet film stage and 26,000 square feet ancillary area similar to the George Lucas Stages at the site. It now wants to explore the potential for developing another stage and facilities that will complement Elstree Studios' existing footprint.

Before any agreement goes ahead, The Council and Studio will need to ensure that:

• oThe new facility exists in harmony with Elstree Studios' current operations and does not compete.
• oThe build of the new facility is built by and funded by the partner and passed over to Hertsmere Borough Council who would become owners.
• oThe partner is responsible for the management of the facility and will retain all income.
• oThe partner will enter into a long term lease (of approximately 30 years) and also a management agreement with Hertsmere Borough Council
