attendance

'showing up with' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'a decent tan after break' is the wordplay.
'after' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'break' indicates anagramming the letters.
'decent'+'tan'='decenttan'
'decenttan' with letters rearranged gives 'ttendance'.
'a'+'ttendance'='ATTENDANCE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for attendance that I've seen before include "Service" , "how many are watching?" , "Gate - enact Dante (anag)" , "all that turned up" , "Number present" .)
