A liquid ejection apparatus includes a head, a receiving device, a holding portion, and a path. The head includes ejection ports that eject a recording liquid onto a recording medium. The receiving device is disposed below the head along a substantially vertical direction and receives recording liquid ejected from the ejection ports. The holding portion is disposed above the receiving device along the substantially vertical direction and holds a recording medium on which the head ejected recording liquid from the ejection ports. The holding portion includes a wall surface. The wall surface includes an opening formed therein. The path guides liquid on the wall surface of the holding portion from the opening in the wall surface of the holding portion to the receiving device. The substantially vertical direction is substantially opposite to a direction of gravity.
