Slavutych Arena is a football-only stadium in Zaporizhia, Ukraine. Before 2006, the stadium was called Central Stadium Metalurh (or Metalurh Stadium).

It is used for football matches and is the home of Metalurh Zaporizhia. The stadium's official maximum capacity is 12,000. In 2001, the Football Federation of Ukraine suspended the stadium and Metalurh played its home games at the AvtoZAZ Stadium which was a home ground of FC Torpedo Zaporizhia. Metalurh returned after major renovations were completed in July 2006.

The Slavutych Arena hosted the 2010 Ukrainian Super Cup final between Shakhtar Donetsk and Tavriya Simferopol. Shakhtar, the reigning league champions, won 7-1 in front of a crowd of 10,500.

Due to ongoing conflict in Luhansk, FC Zorya Luhansk also plays home games at the stadium.
