Pelican Creek is a former rural locality in the Barcaldine Region, Queensland, Australia.

[2] In the 2016 census, Pelican Creek had a population of 20 people.

[1] On 22 November 2019, the Queensland Government decided to amalgamate the localities in the Barcaldine Region, resulting in five expanded localities based on the larger towns: Alpha, Aramac, Barcaldine, Jericho and Muttaburra.

[3][4][5] The Muttaburra Aramac Road forms the south-west boundary of the locality.

[6] Pelican Creek (from which the locality presumably takes its name) flows from Lake Mueller in the north of the locality to the south-west of the locality where it becomes a tributary to Aramac Creek, which is in turn a tributary of the Thomson River and contributes to the Lake Eyre drainage basin.
