The Leeds Folk Festival is an annual festival inaugurated in September 2008 by the Leeds Area Chamber of Commerce. The festival will feature 35-40 artisans working in booths along Parkway Drive in downtown Leeds. There will also be storytellers, traditional music, and a tribute to John Henry near the Leeds Railroad Depot.

Unlike its predecessor, the Creek Bank Festival which took place at Leeds Memorial Park, the Leeds Folk Festival will highlight the city's historic downtown area.
