Ulf Wengård (Januar 15, 1927 – July 7, 2003) was a Norwegian actor. He was known for his comedy roles, and he appeared in many of the Olsen Gang films.

Wengård's father was a cinema engineer in Oppegård.

He was engaged at Chat Noir and the People's Theater. From 1954 onward he appeared in more than a hundred roles at the Oslo New Theater, including The White Horse Inn (Norwegian title: Sommer i Tyrol) and as Snoopy in You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown (Norwegian title: Knøttene).
