In 2006 the Copenhagen Municipality predicted that the main stand of the current Valby Idrætspark would last another 5–10 years.[2] As of April 2007 major investments in the current stadium are put on hold as a decision on the construction of a new stadium is being awaited. A final decision was expected in April 2008.[3]

Hans Hermansen, managing director of BK Frem, has indicated that according to the plan, the construction of a new stadium should commence no later than 2010.[4] However the municipality estimated 2012.[5] Frem has suggested that it might be completed by 2016.[6]

In January 2016 the municipality has ordered a renovation of the existing stadium, worth 3 mio €, thus cancelling plans for a new stadium in the near future. The renovation is due ultimo 2017.[7][8]
