FC Lausanne-Sport planned the construction of the stadium in 2017.[2] Their stadium at the time, Stade Olympique de la Pontaise, was multi-purpose and the club wanted new infrastructure only for football.[1] The stadium was funded by the City of Lausanne. It formally opened on 29 November 2020, as the hosts Lausanne lost 3–0 to BSC Young Boys in a Swiss Super League match.[3]
