The Cultural Centre Busway Station, at South Bank, is part of the South-East Busway served by TransLink bus routes. The busway station is the first stop outside the city, and in Zone 1 of the TransLink integrated public transport system. The busway station is located directly south of Victoria Bridge which is close to the South Brisbane Railway Station, as well as the CityCat catamaran ferry wharf.

The station takes its name from its location within the Queensland Cultural Centre precinct. The platforms are accessible from the pedestrian bridge linking the Queensland Performing Arts Centre to the Queensland Museum and Queensland Art Gallery. The station is also close to the Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre, Queensland Conservatorium Griffith University, Suncorp Piazza and the western end of the South Bank Parklands.

The Cultural Centre Busway Station services buses to the southern suburbs and South-East Busway), as well as providing an alternative terminus to the Brisbane CBD for many bus services from northern suburbs. Also many CityXpress and all BUZ routes pass through the station, providing convenient transfer to and from major servicing areas outside the city. During peak hours, many peak hour express routes bypass the station to ease the congestion due to the already large amount of passengers using the station.

A pedestrian bridge towards the south of the Cultural Centre Busway Station, which provide access to the platforms, connects the Queensland Performing Arts Centre with both the Queensland Museum and the Queensland Art Gallery. The elevated pedestrian bridge has three lifts - one lift is in front of the Queensland Performing Arts Centre, another lift (for bus platform 1) is located in front of the Queensland Museum, and the third lift (for bus platform 2) is located in the centre of the street.

There is a giant-size model of a Cicada right outside platform 2 of the station (possibly due to the Cultural Centre Busway Station being the bus stop for the museum).

*"It should be noted that several outbound services depart from inbound platform 1."
