Restaurant goers can enjoy a tax-free weekend in the Volunteer State through midnight Sunday night.

The holiday weekend is Tennessee’s second sales tax holiday of 2020.

Last weekend, Tennessee had a tax-free weekend on school supplies, technology and clothing.

The August 7-9 Tennessee tax holiday applies to purchases of food and drink at restaurants and is designed to help the industry recover following the COVID-19 pandemic.

The holiday began at 12:01 a.m. on August 7 and runs until 11:59 p.m. on August 9.

The tax exemption also applies to limited service restaurants, according to the Tennessee Department of Revenue.
