Similar to that, yes.

They are tourist attractions in the general sense.

Humm but tourism=attraction "is not a main tag and should be combined 
with some feature".

There lies a problem, a 'show' is not a physical feature but an event.

Attaching it to the recreational ground would give it the physical feature.

However there can be more than one event on a physical feature, 
separating them up would be challenging.
