book a hall for a fixed amount of time was irrelevant to having to
arrange the World Championship match so that it takes a fixed amount
of time - and thus involves a fixed number of games.

Not at all. Simply change the time controls so that each game takes no
longer than HALF the amount of time left until the end of the hall
rental. Disciplined use of this strategy will allow you to play an
unlimted number of games.
