The tax-free weekend in Massachusetts for 2025 is on Saturday, August 9, and Sunday, August 10. During this two-day event, most retail items purchased for personal use priced under $2,500 are exempt from the state's 6.25% sales tax. Online purchases are also eligible if ordered and paid for during the sales tax holiday within Eastern Daylight Time. However, certain items like meals, motor vehicles, boats, tobacco products, alcohol, and others do not qualify for this exemption.
