The former arena, Ibaraki Prefectural Sports Center Arena built in 1963 was closed at August 31st, 2015 because of its deterioration. At the next day, the sports park was transferred from Ibaraki Prefecture to Mito City, and a new arena was built at the same place. In October 2018 Mito-originated Adastria Co., Ltd. purchased the naming rights, and the name was changed to Adastria Mito Arena.{{cite web |title=東町運動公園新体育館のネーミングライツスポンサーが決定しました - 水戸市ホームページ |url=https://www.city.mito.lg.jp/000271/000273/000284/taiikusisetuseibika/p019659.html |website=www.city.mito.lg.jp}}
