Before that, in February 2006, the Czech national ski jumping championships had already been held there. In March 2006, Vogtland Arena saw a second-tier Nordic combined world cup competition and in September 2006 a Summer Grand Prix in ski jumping. On 7 February 2007, local club VSC Klingenthal took over one of the cancelled Ski Jumping World Cup events of Harrachov, making this the first FIS winter competition at the arena. Once again in 2007, a Summer Grand Prix ski jumping event took place there. In January 2008, the arena saw its first Nordic Combined World Cup event.
