The problem.... ???
A 'show' is an event.
Assume that the place is tagged correctly.
How would an event be tagged?
I think for me the best fit is as a node - that sits within the area
where it is held.
The some tags such as;
event:date=easter/xmass/25 Dec/*
event:function=anual_show/agricultrial_show/fair/*
name=*
operator=*
etc.
This would allow for more than one event in the same area. If the tags
were under some physical feature then having more than one event could
produce problems.

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.

I also wish for a settled tag for a regular, locally important event
that is repeatedly or always held at a given site.
I have tagged location of one such in Canada with landuse=fairground
but this doesn't seem perfect and landuse key doesn't logically lend
itself well to specifying details about the events that might be
taking place there. A lot of fairgrounds in Canada end up being tagged
as a park for lack of a better description.
