Is this similar to what you want to tag ?</pre>

<pre>Very, very similar. Thanks. I have made some initial comments on its discussion page.</pre>

<pre>Some exhibition areas are indoor, show grounds are outdoor (at least the ones here <span class="moz-smiley-s1"><span>:-)</span></span> ). </pre>

fair grounds</pre>

<pre>Fair grounds I associate with amusement rides, sugary food and soft drinks. </pre>
<pre>While most show grounds have those too to some degree - but those facilities are mobile and not permanent like the show ground itself.
Hummm ...An English example for those not familiar with show grounds?
<a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.threecounties.co.uk/">http://www.threecounties.co.uk/</a>
has 4 'shows' per year ...
'RHS Spring Festival'
'Championship Dog Show'
'Royal Three Counties Show'
'Malvern Autumn Show'</pre>
<pre>The area/facilities are also available for hire. I think this would be run by the local government authority, and at least some of the shows would be run by them too.

<pre>Within OSM it is presently tagged amenity=showground as a node, the area is tagged landuse=commercial.

<pre>To my way of thinking a showground is not a commercial landuse. It is a recreational use ... so I am now tending to wards </pre>
<pre>landuse=recreation_ground</pre>
<pre>recreation_ground=showground</pre>

<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://tareeshow.org/">http://tareeshow.org/</a> This concentrates on the yearly 'show' event ...
does not show the markets on Friday.. Mens Shed .. etc.
