Ghostfest is an extreme metal and hardcore punk festival in Leeds, England that first took place at The Cockpit across two days in August 2005, returning in 2006. It brought together the best of the UK's underground metal and hardcore crop along with metal and hardcore bands from Europe and America. There was no Ghostfest in 2007, but it has returned every year since 2008, and has now become a household name on the European indoor metal and hardcore scene, growing to ten times its original capacity since its inception in 2005 and selling out nearly every year in advance.

The first Ghostfest took place on Saturday 13 August and Sunday 14 August at the Leeds Cockpit on its smaller stage due to the main stage being unavailable. 18 of the underground metal and hardcore acts played. It was priced at £15 for a two-day pass. The whole festival was shot and released as a DVD.

The second Ghostfest took place on Saturday 12 August and Sunday 13 August. It was once again held in the Cockpit, but on both stages. In a bid to let people see as many bands as possible without any potential clashes, stage times were alternated between the two stages so one band would play on the main stage while another would set up on the second stage.

A day ticket cost £19, whilst a weekend pass cost £25.
