The project of the arena was presented by a consortium of Dedeco and MD Polska in 2010, with construction commencing in 2011. It is located in Chełmińskie Przedmieście [pl], in the western part of Toruń. The total cost of the venue reached 158 million złoty (approx. 40 million). The building's dimensions are: 162.25 meters in length, 97.10 meters in width and 20 meters in height.[1]

Since 1 July 2025, the venue is officially named Kujawsko-Pomorska Arena Toruń following an agreement between the Kuyavian–Pomeranian Voivodeship and the municipality of Toruń.[4]
