Eikerapen Roots Festival is traditional music festival held in Eikerapen, Åseral, Norway. It has been running since August 2004. The 2014 festival was scheduled to run from 30 July to 3 August.

The festival used a stage under a dam until it had to be demolished. The last performance with the stage was by Green Carnation, in 2014. The festival received the Vest-Agder Bygdeutviklingsprisen (English: Rural Development Award) in 2011.

In 2019, it was reported that the festival may have to be discontinued for financial reasons.
