MOL Aréna stands in Dunajská Streda as the centrepiece of a 17-hectare sports complex with more than ten pitches, also housing the FC DAC 1904 academy. The ground is all-seated, and floodlights reach 1,800 lux, so evening fixtures are possible. In European competition the venue is advertised as DAC Aréna.
The stadium walls incorporate bricks from the town's destroyed synagogue, reused as building material during construction between 1949 and 1953. The pitch was measured to match the Helsinki Olympic Stadium of 1952, and the ground opened on 16 August 1953 before 4,000 spectators.
