The circuit is located in the city centre on part of docklands called Frihamnspiren, which is usually used as a concert venue. The spectator capacity for the venue is 30,000. The venue for the race weekends is known as "Eco Drive Arena", with all cars running on environmentally classed fuel.

It was inaugurated during June 2008, hosting one round of the Swedish Touring Car Championship (STCC), along with supporting races. The main event was won by Honda Racing driver Thed Björk.
