Stadium
In 2008 the club relocated to Krasnokutsk when the Metalist Stadium was put under renovation in preparation for the EURO-2012. Before that the club played its games at the Dynamo Stadium in Kharkiv. The stadium was contracted by FC Kharkiv and put for renovation. The new stadium that Helios started to utilize belonged to the less successful club of Kharkiv – Hazovyk which now is defunct.
For the Ukrainian First League 2009-10 season Helios relocated back to Kharkiv and рlayed at the "Arsenal-Bavaria" Stadium. The owner of the facility, Arsenal Kharkiv, later announced its withdrawal from the PFL of Ukraine for the Ukrainian Second League 2009–10 season. Remarkably, Arsenal's Bavaria Stadium is not the only stadium in their possession in the city. In July the stadium was renamed Helios-Arena.
