SGL arena (German pronunciation: [ʔɛs ɡeː ʔɛl ʔaˈʁeːna]), until 1 July 2011 the Impuls Arena [ʔɪmˈpʊls ʔaˈʁeːna], is a football stadium in Augsburg, Bavaria, Germany. It is used mostly for football matches and hosts the home matches of FC Augsburg.

The stadium has a capacity of 30,660 with 19,060 seats and standing room for 11,034. A second phase of construction could expand capacity to 49,000 in the future. It replaced the club's previous stadium, Rosenaustadion.
