Oktoberfest, 365 days a year.
Krush Brau Park is a veteran-owned German entertainment destination on more than 10 acres in Kissimmee, Florida, built on the grounds of the former Jungleland Zoo.
Four venues. One property.
The Portal Immersion Center is the indoor home of brunch, mystery dinners, Krampus Con and the haunted trail. The World Event Center is the outdoor festival tent for the biggest days. The Biergarten & Brewery, a permanent German restaurant, bar and brewery with a Stein Club, is planned to open Spring 2027. World Adventure is the five-acre showcase of world cultures, with a kids play center, petting zoo and animatronic animals, in development.
We hire authentic German musicians, dancers and artists. We are dog friendly. We release discounted event tickets for veterans through Vet Tix.

From closed zoo to Bavarian beer garden
"I bought the zoo in 2020 with my wife, Kathryn Krush, and we headed down a long journey of recreating a favorite part of Europe: Germany." Founder Waylon Krush, a U.S. Army veteran, was stationed in Bad Aibling, Germany for 3 years and went to Oktoberfest 3 times. Back home he searched Central Florida for a property with a real garden, like the beer garden in Munich, and found it in the closed Jungleland Zoo on U.S. 192.
"My 9-month project is now 6 years and counting," Waylon says, "but we keep going."
