Feria de juegos/Feria de diversiones


Explanation:
Hola Irina,
Me imagino que es la feria en la que hay diferentes juegos como la Rueda de la Fortuna y actividades como el tiro al blanco para ganar premios.
Buena suerte y saludos del Oso ¶:^)

A algunas ferias de este tipo pero más grandes y que están en un stio permanente les llaman también ***parque de diversiones***.

Just a Fun-Fact:

En México, mi país la feria más grande de este tipo se llama precisamente \"La Feria de Chapultepec\" aunque creo que recientemente le cambiaron el nombre por \"Chapultepec Mágico\".

neutral  Refugio: I think you will find that in English, this expression usually refers to a temporary setup of games and sometimes rides, rather than an ongoing centro o parque de diversiones.
