6 show tents where pavilions now stands
17 armada way beside the toilets
The "tents" were inflatable multi purpose spaces. They had to be continuously pumped with air to keep them up and the doors were air locks to stop them deflating. The advantage was there was no internal supporting structure. Don't think they lasted more than a few years.
