The new stadium is built on the same spot as the old stadium, the Gemeentelijk Sportpark Tilburg, which had a smaller capacity and fewer facilities. This stadium was demolished in 1992. The current stadium opened in 1995.[1] Tenants Willem II Tilburg have been tenants of the stadium since 1995.
The original name was Willem II Stadion, but in 2009 the stadium was renamed Koning ("King") Willem II Stadion, honouring William II of the Netherlands.
