Skarsjövallen was inaugurated in 1984.[1] When Ljungskile reached the Swedish top-tier Allsvenskan in 1996, the stadium was brought to standard with parts from newly-renovated Olympia in Helsingborg.[2] After having changed names eight times between 2006 and 2017 for sponsorship reasons, the stadium name returned to the original Skarsjövallen in 2017.[3] It had been named HA Bygg Arena 2006–2007, Starke Arvid Arena 2008–2010, Markbygg Arena 2011–2012, and Uddevalla Arena from 2015.[1]
