The James Wright Poetry Festival was held annually in early spring in Martins Ferry, Ohio, United States, Wright's home town, to celebrate the poetry of James Wright, the Pulitzer Prize-winning American poet.

The festival had been held annually since 1981, but was suspended in 2007.[1] Ohio University restarted it in approximately 2018. In Spring 2023 the festival was organized by the Ohio Poetry Association.
