I'd call such a place a "fairground" or "showground", but I'm not sure
whether it would come under "tourism", "leisure", or "amenity".  I'm not so
keen on "landuse" for it, as the land may also be used for something else.
A particular example is the Cappamore Agricultural Show in Ireland; its
location is given as "Showgrounds, Ballyvoreen, Cappamore, Co. Limerick"
but it looks like for most of the year it is normal farmland.
