The arena is the home of IFK Vänersborg. It hosted the 2013 Bandy World Championship,[1] when Division A and Division B were separate events for the second time.[2] The arena also hosted the 2019 Bandy World Championship.
The arena has been the target of high local press attention because of the high cost overrun. The city has approved a cost of just over SEK 100 million, although the end cost was around SEK 230 million (US$30 million).[citation needed]
