Still to come: last year’s names, no 2026 box yet
We listed these brands’ calendars last season and have not seen a 2026 one on sale. Each brand’s page keeps last year’s box and takes an address for the day this year’s appears.
On sale now: 598 calendars
Every calendarFrequently asked questions
When do advent calendars come out in 2026?
Most are out already: of the 667 2026 calendars we list, 598 were on sale on 16 October and 61 more were taking pre-orders. The next dated launch is Aldi Little Town Wooden Advent Calendar 2026, on 8 October. Brands we listed last season that have not shown a 2026 box yet are listed on this page with last year's edition.
Can you pre-order an advent calendar?
Yes — 61 of the 2026 calendars we list are on pre-order now, shipping between 28 September and 23 November. A pre-order is charged either at checkout or when it ships, depending on the shop; each calendar's page says where it is sold and at what price.
What are the dates of Advent in 2026?
Advent 2026 begins on Sunday 29 November — the fourth Sunday before Christmas — and ends on Christmas Eve. Almost every advent calendar ignores that and runs from 1 to 24 December; a 12-day one starts on 13 December.
Do advent calendars sell out?
The limited ones can go early at the brand's own shop, since calendars are a fixed seasonal run and are rarely restocked. When that happens the same box is usually still listed by other sellers, and every calendar's page here links to those listings in your country.
