History
The need for a football arena in Jakobstad was discussed since at least the 1990s. The first meeting to discuss the construction of a new stadium, then called the Jeppis Arena, was held on On 18 June 2019, following several failed project attempts over the decades. After several setbacks, construction of the stadium began on 24 June 2024. The stadium was official opened with an FC United match against GBK on 24 July 2025 with the home team winning 9–0. The following day, the first men's match was held at the stadium with FF Jaro facing Vaasan Palloseura in front of a sold out crowd. Adam Vidjeskog's scored FF Jaro's first goal in the arena.[3]
Naming rights
From its conception, the arena's naming rights have been held by Project Liv, a Finnish organization supporting families with children with illness and disabilities.[4]
