Sydney Olympic Park ferry wharf is located on the southern side of the Parramatta River serving the Sydney suburb of Wentworth Point.

History

Sydney Olympic Park wharf opened on 22 September 1997 to service the Sydney Olympic Park precinct for the 2000 Summer Olympics. Today it also serves the Sydney suburb of Wentworth Point. It is served by Sydney Ferries Parramatta River services operating between Circular Quay and Parramatta.[1] The single wharf is served by RiverCat, River and Parramatta River class ferries.

On 14 January 2015, the wharf closed for a rebuild with services using the nearby Armory wharf.[2][3][4][5] The wharf reopened on 20 May 2015.[6]

In July 2023, the government adjusted suburb boundaries in the area, with Sydney Olympic Park ferry wharf transferring from the suburb of Sydney Olympic Park to the suburb of Wentworth Point.[7][8]
