The word showroom has two distinct meanings including:

[edit] Marketing location

A showroom for automobiles

A showroom is a large space used to display products for sale, such as automobiles, furniture, appliances, carpet or apparel.

A show room is a retail store of a company in which the products are sale only created by their brand or company.^{[citation needed]}

[edit] Entertainment venue

A showroom is a permanent enclosed space used to present a performance. Sometimes it will be customized for a particular show; for example, the Las Vegas Hilton showroom used for the rock opera Starlight Express was customized by pouring concrete ramps onto its stage area and in the seating area.

Some showrooms are used daily, while others are only used when a performer is booked to perform. In some cases, a showroom is leased to a performer, who then retains all income rather than being paid by the showroom owner.
