Asianellus festivus is a species of jumping spider in the family Salticidae. Originally described as Euophrys festiva by Carl Ludwig Koch in 1834, this species has undergone several taxonomic revisions and was transferred to the genus Asianellus by Logunov & Hęciak in 1996.

The specific name festivus is derived from Latin, meaning "festive" or "joyful".
