عرض متجول، معرض متجول
Explanation:
Whether you choose عرض or معرض depends on the content of the show. If it consists of posters and similar items, for instance, then معرض would be acceptable. If it consists of films or live presentations, then عرض would be more appropriate.

The important thing to remember is that "roadshow" has nothing to do with "roads." It is simply a presentation that goes from one place to another to reach more people.

agree  Nesrin: I don't think vehicles always have to be involved (as I understand it, it could take place in any public place), so I'd say عروض ترويجية could be enough.
