The 2025 LEGO Advent Calendars Are Up for Preorder And Will Sell Out Fast

LEGO has had listings for 2025 Advent calendars for quite some time, but they are finally up for preorder. Alongside a ton of new LEGO sets available for August, there are now six advent calendars you can purchase. All of these holiday offerings will be released on September 1, and many of them will sell out well before November. It's absolutely worth preordering these sets before they actually release if you want to secure a specific version.

There are a few new calendars this year that we didn't see last year. In addition to the usual Star Wars and Harry Potter builds, there is now a Minecraft calendar available. There is also a new Disney Frozen one that is replacing the generic Disney calendar from 2024. The most notable absence in 2025 is that it would seem LEGO is not bringing back the LEGO Marvel Advent Calendar from previous years.

LEGO Advent Calendars Are Up for Preorder

There are two types of calendars available at different price points. Anything directly related to a major franchise (Star Wars, Minecraft, Disney) is priced at $44.99 while the LEGO City and LEGO Friends calendars are $10 less at $34.99. All six of the new Advent calendars are currently only available to preorder through the LEGO store, though we expect listings to go live at Amazon, Target, and Best Buy later this month.

If you've never purchased a LEGO Advent calendar before, you're in for a treat. These little sets function similarly to any other Advent calendar in that they include 24 gifts that you'll open each day in the leadup to Christmas. Each new gift will be either a small build or a minifigure that will all come together to make a little scene by the time all of the gifts have been opened. The box itself is included in that scene, so you'll want to make sure you open it correctly to avoid ruining the end result.

Will the 2025 Advent calendars go on sale?

While it's unlikely that LEGO will ever discount these sets directly, it's likely that you'll be able to find discounts at Amazon for them after their release date. Last year we saw discounts on these sets in late September and early October. The 2024 Harry Potter Advent Calendar for example dropped to its lowest price close to the end of October before selling out completely. Major retailers will be looking to get rid of all of their stock before November starts, so this is the best time to find savings. The only risk is potentially missing out on the calendar you want if it sells out before then.
