Yoda Fountain is a fountain with a bronze statue of the Star Wars character Yoda, installed in front of the Industrial Light & Magic offices in the Letterman Digital Arts Center in San Francisco, California, United States.[1][2] The full-size replica was unveiled in 2005 and has since become a tourist destination[3][4] and meetup location[5][6] for many fans.

Visitors can also go inside the lobby of the offices behind the statue to see and take pictures with some memorabilia.[7] Starting in 2026, there is also a General Store around the corner selling Star Wars products and merchandise as well as wine and food items from Skywalker Ranch.[8]
