Originally buried on 8th October 1969 to mark the centenary of Local Government in Allora, it was to be opened during the bi-centenary celebrations of Allora in 2069.

It was instead opened on Saturday, July 20th 2019 during the town's 150 years celebrations and the contents were put on display in the sports museum until a new capsule was made and was re-buried on Saturday, 27th July 2019.

​

The current capsule contents include the original contents placed in it in 1969 along with a host of other items including artwork from school children, a photo record of the 150 years celebrations, a flag, newspapers and many other items from Allora in 2019.
