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

Some exhibition areas are indoor, show grounds are outdoor (at least the ones here:-)  ).

Fair grounds I associate with amusement rides, sugary food and soft drinks.

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?
http://www.threecounties.co.uk/
has 4 'shows' per year ...
'RHS Spring Festival'
'Championship Dog Show'
'Royal Three Counties Show'
'Malvern Autumn Show'

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.

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