VERO BEACH, FL (July 19, 2023) — Back to school is just around the corner in Florida, and Vero Beach Outlets will celebrate the state’s two-week Tax-Free Holiday with a Family Fun Festival on Saturday, July 29, beginning at 11 am.

Events for the whole family will combine fun and education, with several activities benefiting Coastal Connections, a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting coastal habitats for sea turtle survival by educating and connecting people to the environment.

“Vero Beach Outlets provides massive savings to our shoppers all year long, but the addition of a tax-free holiday will benefit them even more,” said Karen Loeffler, Marketing Manager at Vero Beach Outlets. “We’re so excited to combine those additional values with events and appearances that the whole family can enjoy and learn from together.”

The Family Fun Festival will kick off at 11 am. Mermaid Serena will take photos with the children and answer questions about life under the sea. At 12 noon, Vero Beach Outlets invites families to explore a state-of-the-art Fire Engine and Police Vehicle and meet members of the Indian River County Fire and Police Departments, who will be standing by to answer their questions.

At 1 PM, author E.G. Yerian will preview her book Rayne’s (Wild!) Life Adventures, A Wildlife Warrior Series. Miss Yerian will donate 10% of the book sales at the event to Coastal Connections, which will be matched by Vero Beach Outlets.

Teachers can benefit by entering a raffle at Coach Outlet, and through an Educators’ discount program from adidas Outlet Store, Ann Taylor Factory Store, Calvin Klein, Columbia Factory Store, Crocs, Jockey, Loft Outlet, Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams, Skechers Outlet, and Tommy Hilfiger.

All shoppers, meanwhile, will enjoy even greater savings. Consumers can purchase qualifying back-to-school clothing and accessories exempt from tax during the 2023-2024 Back-to-School Sales Tax Holiday, which begins Monday, July 24 and extends through Sunday, August 6.

Located at 1824 94th Drive in Vero Beach, Florida, at the intersection of Interstate 95 and Route 60, a short drive from the Atlantic Ocean, Vero Beach Outlets is home to more than 35 designer and name brand stores, offering up to 70% off regular retail prices.
