TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — Multiple summer items and events will be exempt from sales tax in Florida during the summer season.

The freedom summer sales tax holiday was included in a tax relief package Gov. Ron DeSantis signed Thursday. There are also two back-to-school sales tax holidays, two disaster preparedness sales tax holidays and a permanent exemption for baby and toddler necessities.

The 14-week sales tax holiday will run from May 29 to Sept. 4.
