The five LEGO advent calendars for 2026
Every calendar below appears on lego.com/en-gb as a 2026 set, and we read each product page on 19 October 2026. The prices are LEGO's recommended prices in pounds.
| Set | Name | UK price | Pieces | Age | Main characters | Stock on lego.com, 19 October |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 60510 | City Advent Calendar 2026 | £22.99 | 252 | 5+ | Santa, Mrs. Claus, elves | Available |
| 75456 | Star Wars Advent Calendar 2026 | £29.99 | 293 | 6+ | The Mandalorian, Moff Gideon, Grogu | Available |
| 42698 | Friends Advent Calendar 2026 | £22.99 | 211 | 6+ | Liann, Nova, Aliya | Available |
| 76340 | Marvel Advent Calendar 2026 | £29.99 | 317 | 6+ | Doctor Doom, Spider-Man, Ghost-Spider, Wolverine | Available |
| 43298 | Disney Princess Advent Calendar 2026 | £29.99 | 290 | 5+ | Ariel, Cinderella, Moana, Mulan and four more | Sold out |
Each page limits an order to three of a set, except the sold-out Disney page. LEGO lists the sets as new and "Available now", and gives no separate release date. We could not find an official 2026 release date for any of them, so ignore any site that quotes one.
What is inside each one
The lego.com pages describe the contents like this.
The City calendar has Santa, Mrs. Claus, three elves, a snowman and a baby reindeer. It also holds Santa's sleigh, a train and a hot chocolate cart. The box folds out into a workshop play scene.
The Star Wars calendar is themed on The Mandalorian. It has The Mandalorian, Moff Gideon and Grogu in Christmas outfits. It also has seven mini vehicles, including a festive X-wing and the Razor Crest, and four creatures: a Blurrg, a Mudhorn, a Bantha and a Dewback.
The Friends calendar has Liann, Nova and Aliya minidolls and animals such as a seal, a pony, a polar bear and a penguin. You build a snowman and a sleigh ride.
The Marvel calendar has Doctor Doom, Spider-Man, Ghost-Spider and Wolverine in winter scenes, plus a mini Avengers Helicarrier.
The Disney Princess calendar has 24 mini builds and eight characters: Ariel, Cinderella, Moana, Mulan, Gus, Mushu, Pua and Sebastian. The box turns into a game board for up to eight players.
Is there a LEGO Harry Potter advent calendar in 2026?
LEGO sold a Harry Potter calendar (76456) in 2025, and lego.com now marks it as a retired product. A search for "advent calendar 2026" on lego.com UK on 19 October 2026 returned no Harry Potter calendar, and no Minecraft or Frozen one either, although both of those had calendars in 2025.
So searches for a LEGO Harry Potter advent calendar 2026 lead to nothing on lego.com. We found no official announcement of one, and we leave out any rumour. If LEGO adds a calendar later, this page will change.
LEGO advent calendar 2026 release date
LEGO has not published a release date, and the sets were already on sale on 19 October 2026. Marvel's page says the fun starts on 1 December. A calendar opens one door a day from 1 December, so buy before then.
How to choose
Pick the calendar by the child's age first, then by theme, then by price per day.
Age. City and Disney Princess say 5+. Star Wars, Friends and Marvel say 6+. The age label is LEGO's guide, so you know your child best.
Theme. Match the calendar to what the child already plays with. Friends and Disney Princess pair with sets they may own. Marvel and Star Wars suit fans of the films and shows. City is the open-ended choice, with Santa, a train and a sleigh.
Price per day. Divide the price by the number of doors. LEGO states 24 days for City, Friends, Marvel and Disney Princess. The Star Wars page does not give a door count, so we do not work out a figure for it.
| Calendar | UK price | Price per day over 24 days |
|---|---|---|
| City | £22.99 | 96p |
| Friends | £22.99 | 96p |
| Marvel | £29.99 | £1.25 |
| Disney Princess | £29.99 | £1.25 |
The Star Wars calendar costs the same as Marvel and Disney Princess at £29.99.
Where to buy the LEGO advent calendar 2026 in the UK
Stock as of 19 October 2026, which is the last day we read each listing:
- lego.com UK: all five listed. Four available, Disney Princess sold out. It is the only place that lists the full range.
- Argos: all five listed, each marked down by at least 20%. Prices that day: £18 for City, £24 for Marvel, £23 for Star Wars, £18 for Friends and £24 for Disney Princess.

We did not read Smyths or Amazon UK listings for 2026, so we do not quote them. Shop prices change, so check the live page before you buy. Compare the final price, and check that the seller is the shop itself and not a marketplace seller.
Do LEGO advent calendars sell out?
Yes, some do, and one has already sold out in 2026. The Disney Princess calendar showed as sold out on lego.com on 19 October 2026. The other four were available.
The 2025 season shows the pattern. UK LEGO news coverage on 10 November 2025 reported that stock was starting to run dry at Amazon UK. The City calendar had sold out at Amazon UK by then, though Very still had it. The 2025 Harry Potter calendar is now a retired product on lego.com.
If a calendar sells out, buy a different one rather than pay a marketplace seller more than the shop price. Our guide to LEGO reselling in the UK covers how LEGO sells on afterwards.
Are they discounted?
Yes, they were in 2025, and Argos has already marked 2026 prices down by 20% on 19 October. In November 2025, UK LEGO news coverage listed these UK retailer prices against LEGO's recommended price:
- 76456 Harry Potter: £24 at Amazon UK, against £29.99.
- 75418 Star Wars: £23.99 at Amazon UK, against £29.99.
- 43273 Disney Frozen: £19.99 at Amazon UK, against £29.99, which is 33% off.
- 42668 Friends: £14.99 at Amazon UK, against £19.99.
- 60475 City: £16 at Very, against £19.99.
Discounts landed before December, as the article date of 10 November 2025 shows. That is a record of last year, not a promise for this year. Our LEGO Black Friday 2026 guide covers what LEGO and UK shops did in 2024 and 2025. A calendar bought after 1 December gives you fewer days to use it, so a late saving is worth less.
