The inaugural match was played on November 15, 1983, when Vasco da Gama beat Avaí 6-1. The first goal of the stadium was scored by Vasco da Gama's Vilson Tadei.
On May 31, 1986, the stadium lights were inaugurated.
The stadium's attendance record currently stands at 25,735, set on July 17, 1988, when Avaí beat Blumenau 2-1, for the Campeonato Catarinense final.
