It is the home stadium of HNK Šibenik football club.

Construction of a new stadium began in early 1946, as part of the sports complex which featured a football pitch, athletics track, courts for tennis, basketball and volleyball and concrete stands.

[1] The location chosen for the project was an area called Šubićevac, which is where Rade Končar, a notable Second World War anti-fascist fighter, was executed by the Italian army along with 25 other members of the resistance.

The final of the 2019–20 Croatian Cup between Rijeka and Lokomotiva was played on the stadium on 1 August 2020.
