The stadium's initial name was the "Tennessee Soccer Complex", but was changed to its current name after a donation from Regal Cinemas in 2007.[2]
One Knoxville SC uses this stadium as a temporary venue before the new ground, hosted in Old City in Downtown Knoxville, opens in 2025. The new stadium will also host the Tennessee Smokies, a Double A affiliate of the Chicago Cubs.[3]

The University of Tennessee has gameday buses that travel from the school's agricultural campus to the stadium.[citation needed]
