At a trade fair在商展上, the companies租攤位、展示產品的公司 renting booths and displaying their products就是exhibitors; the people walking around looking四處走看的人 are the visitors or attendees才是visitors或attendees。At an art show在藝術展上, the artists whose paintings hang on the wall畫作掛在牆上的藝術家 are exhibitors就是exhibitors。At an agricultural or dog show在農業展或狗展上, the people entering their animals for judging帶動物去參賽評比的人 are also called exhibitors也叫做exhibitors。

It is an event-organiser's word — you meet it on signs, badges, forms and websites: "exhibitor registration," "exhibitor list," "exhibitors' entrance." Ordinary people rarely say it in conversation; they would say "the companies at the show" or name the company.

It is an event-organiser's word這是主辦單位常用的字 — you meet it你會在 on signs, badges, forms and websites告示、識別證、表格跟網站上看到它: “exhibitor registration,”參展商登記, “exhibitor list,”參展商名單, “exhibitors' entrance.”參展商入口。Ordinary people一般人 rarely say it in conversation很少在聊天時這樣說; they would say他們會說 “the companies at the show” or name the company「展場上的那些公司」，或直接講公司名字。

Note that the exhibitor is the one displaying, not the one who owns the venue and not the museum staff — though a museum or cinema can itself be an exhibitor in the trade sense, since in the film business the cinema chains that actually screen films are called exhibitors.

Note that請注意 the exhibitor is the one displaying展示的人才是exhibitor, not the one who owns the venue不是場地的擁有者 and not the museum staff也不是博物館員工 — though a museum or cinema不過博物館或電影院 can itself be an exhibitor in the trade sense在業界的意思裡本身也可以是exhibitor, since in the film business因為在電影產業裡, the cinema chains actually screen films實際放映電影的連鎖電影院 are called exhibitors也叫做exhibitors。
