Kyoto Joypolis was a Joypolis branded amusement park owned and operated by Sega Corporation, located in Kyoto, Japan that operated from 1997 until 2002.

History

The park was situated on the tenth floor of the JR Kyoto ISETAN complex. Unlike most Joypolis venues, Kyoto operated as a free entry park due to it being smaller than the other Joypolis venues, and mainly contained newly-produced attractions from Sega.

The park closed in August 2002 after Sega and ISETAN's contract to operate the park was not renewed.
