Dear X,
 
The year is 2030 and  the KKNK has just occurred. A lot has changed since the festival happened in 2021! Let me explain how the festival works nowadays, ten years after Covid-19 turned everything upside down.

• In your letter,    you may wish to respond to some of the five questions below. These questions are prompts to consider (you don’t have to answer them all!).

Please feel free to write your letter in any way that you would like to, allowing your imagination of the 2030 KKNK to develop in perhaps unexpected directions. These five questions are meant to spark your imagination, not to constrain it.

1. How has the KKNK changed in the years since the pandemic began? And in what ways is the festival the same as before Covid? 
2. Where is the KKNK? Is it in the same location as before the pandemic? 
3.  Imagine that you are  a sponsor of the KKNK in 2030:  what are your motivations for sponsoring the festival?  Have your motivations changed since the pandemic began?  Has the pandemic changed the ways in which you support  the KKNK?
4.  What have you learnt about the value of the   KKNK? Is the festival important? Why is it important? Who is it important to? 
5.  Overall, have things changed for the better? Have things changed for the worse? Both?

 
Please feel free to make the letter  as creative as you would like to!   

Remember that

• Your letter can be as short or as long as you like! 
• Alternatively, you are welcome to make an audio recording of your 'letter', speaking back to yourself from the  festival in 2030.
