Bankhead is a neighborhood located west of downtown Atlanta, Georgia.

At its center is MARTA's Bankhead station and the city's Maddox Park.

The neighborhood's name comes from Bankhead Highway, a thoroughfare that has since been renamed the Donald Lee Hollowell Parkway (for a civil rights attorney who lived near Bankhead in the nearby affluent and historic Collier Heights neighborhood).

The boundaries of Bankhead are Jefferson Street to the north (a few blocks North of Donald Lee Hollowell Parkway), Joseph E. Boone Blvd to the south, Joseph E. Lowery Blvd to the east and Chappell Rd to the west.

The 1990s Bankhead Bounce dance, performed by Michael Jackson at the 1995 MTV Music Video Awards, was named after the neighborhood.
