 2026 Clean Air Fair 

The Environmental Protection Commission (EPC) is Hillsborough County’s local environmental agency. Each year, in honor of National Clean Air Month, we host the award‑winning Clean Air Fair. This year marks the event’s 25th anniversary, held on Thursday, May 7, 2026, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at Poe Plaza in downtown Tampa. Our theme, “Stars and Stripes Forever – Celebrating Clean Air Together,” honors our nation’s 250th anniversary and the importance of protecting the air we all share. 

The fair is FREE for exhibitors and visitors. More than 1,000 attendees join us annually for this two‑hour lunchtime event, which promotes public health, supports environmental protection, and showcases the outstanding work of our community partners. See flyer below for more details. Exhibitors may register at the link provided by April 24, 2026. We hope to see you there!
