University of Queensland Ferry Wharf is a wharf on the Brisbane River in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It is part of the BCC Ferries network. It is the upstream terminus of the CityCat and all BCC ferries, serving the eastern-most part of the main University of Queensland campus at St Lucia. Moves to extend ferry services further upstream have been rejected, given that ferry services navigating the form of the river cannot compete on time or cost with alternative rail or bus services.

A non-TransLink cross river ferry service formerly ran between UQ and Dutton Park, but was discontinued when the bus, cyclist and pedestrian only Eleanor Schonell Bridge adjacent to the route was completed.

It is in Zone 2 of the TransLink integrated public transport system.
