It was constructed for local club team NK Osijek as a successor precinct Gradski Vrt Stadium.

The project was officially announced on 19 April 2018, in the Osijek movie theater "Urania", by the former president of the club Ivan Meštrović.

[11] In the next phase, until the official opening of only the stadium and the training camp, there will be the furnishing of the interior rooms and the sowing of grass, i.e. the installation of artificial surfaces on the auxiliary fields.

[12] In June 2023, the Croatian Football Federation confirmed that the national team will open its qualifying for UEFA Euro 2024 in the stadium against Turkey.

At the beginning of 2022, the club representatives announced that the West Stand won't feature saunas and jacuzzis, as originally planned.

The roof (188x150m) stretches outside the stadium, ensuring shade or rain protection and making it a more friendly public area.
