Aurora GO Station is a train and bus station in the GO Transit network located on Wellington Street East between Yonge Street and Bayview Avenue in Aurora, Ontario, Canada. It is a stop on the Barrie line train service, and connects with York Region Transit local bus routes, and the GO Express Bus between Newmarket Bus Terminal and Union Station Bus Terminal.

There are 5 trains per day southbound to Toronto in the morning returning in the late afternoon and early evening - in addition there are 19 return bus trips per weekday and hourly bus service on weekends and holidays. The station is also served nearby several times per day by various York Region Transit routes.

The rail presence in Aurora dates back to 1853, when the first Steam Train from Toronto passed Machell's Corners, and in 1855 this line was completed to Collingwood. In 1900, Grand Trunk Railway constructed the present building, which was designated a provincial heritage building in 1971, and was renovated in 1992 after GO Transit became the exclusive passenger carrier.
