This predecessor dates back to 1966 and was inaugurated September 4, the same year, as the eighth ice hockey venue in Sweden.

When Timrå IK was promoted to the Swedish Hockey League in year 2000, the old Timrå Isstadion was timeworn and didn't met the requirement for a modern ice hockey venue so a second major reconstruction was made prior to season 2003/2004, resulting in today's capacity of 6 000, still far from the all-time high arena audience record from 20 January 1972 of 11 695 paying spectators when Timrå IK played against Brynäs IF.

[1] In October 2018, a new video cube was installed in the arena with a screen size of 170 square meters, among Europe's largest.

The youth teams often had late training sessions in NHC Arena or had to play on the field.

With the help of Timrå Municipality and many non-profit forces, construction started of Lill-Strimmahallen, adjacent to NHC Arena.
