landuse=commercial from the wiki is;

used for commercial purposes. Commercial landuse mainly deals with 
services and trade (tertiary sector 
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tertiary_sector_of_the_economy>). Such 
area may consist of offices, administration, laboratories, logistics, 
hotels, car repair stations, and associated infrastructure (car parks, 
service roads, lawns and so-on)


That does not seem to be a good fit for country showgrounds. Ones in 
more constant use for example with trade halls might be landuse=commercial.


I have found a few with the older tag 'leisure=recreation_ground' that 
is clearly now 'landuse=recreation_ground'.
