Arena Lviv has struggled to find a permanent tenant during its existence – FC Karpaty Lviv originally played their during the 2011-2012 season but returned to Stadion Ukrayina due to the lease price. Shakhtar Donetsk played their home matches in Lviv from 2014 to 2016 due to the ongoing war in the Donbas region that forced them away from Donbass Arena. FC Lviv became tenants in 2018 with FC Rukh Lviv following suit in 2020.
