Build your way to Christmas Day with the best Lego advent calendars and bag the odd bargain ahead of the holidays during Black Friday.
With Christmas almost upon us and December starting in a matter of days, now's the time to be thinking about advent calendars if you haven't already. And if you're a Lego fan, what better than a Lego advent calendar? This year, there are six different Lego advent calendars available, each from a different Lego theme.
With Black Friday coming just before the advent season starts, it's a good time to pick up a Lego advent calendar — there's a good chance you may pick up a good discount. In fact, we've already spotted some deals: Lego itself is offering 10% off the Star Wars Advent Calendar 2024.
Below, we've included the best current deals on all 2024 Lego advent calendars: That includes Star Wars, Friends, City, Harry Potter, Disney and, brand new for this year, Spider-Man.
If you don't quite find what you're looking for below, it could be worth checking out our guides for best Lego Star Wars sets or the best Lego space sets. And for more Black Friday offers, be sure to visit our guide to the top 10 Black Friday Lego deals so far.
Lego Star Wars Advent Calendar 2024
The Lego Star Wars Advent Calendar is perhaps the most popular of them all, and this 2024 edition has some rather cool mini builds. We're digging the tiny AT-AT, and the Princess Leia minifigure donning a holiday sweater is adorable.
There's a 10% saving to be had if you order from Lego.com directly or head into a Lego branch, and it's the same price on Amazon.
Lego Disney Advent Calendar 2024
There's a huge 56% saving to be had on the Disney Advent Calendar 2024 if you order from Amazon. That's certainly not to be sniffed at, and if you're a Disney fan, this is a Lego set not to be missed.
Each day contains a unique mini build. Some of our favorites here include Ariel's castle and a micro-scale version of Cinderella's castle. There are also a number of figures to play with, including Moana, Ariel, Elsa and Sven.
Lego City Advent Calendar 2024
While there's not currently a discount available on the Lego City Advent Calendar, it's still very much worth considering this Christmas. It's a little cheaper than the branded calendars anyway, and offers a great selection of festive minifigures and mini-builds.
There's a skiing minifigure, a boy and a dog, Santa Claus and Mrs Claus and, of course, a miniature Christmas tree. Everything you need to design a festive scene.
Lego Friends Advent Calendar 2024
This Lego Friends advent calendar is a little more colorful than we'd typically expect a festive-themed set to look — but when Lego Friends is all about cutesy pastel colors, it's not a huge surprise. This range is super-popular with kids, and we're sure they're going to love building a miniature Christmas train, a piano, a mail box and a whole lot more.
Buy from Target and there's currently a huge 35% saving to be had — an absolute bargain!
Lego Harry Potter Advent Calendar 2024
It's not a huge discount, but Target currently has the cheapest price on the Lego Harry Potter Advent Calendar. And hey, every extra Knut and Sickle helps, right?
If you (or your kids) are a huge Potter nerd, then you're going to love the 2024 Harry Potter advent calendar. There are some great minifigures in here, including Harry Potter (of course), Dumbledore and a choir ghost. The builds are extra-festive, with a table filled with a scrumptious-looking turkey, a couple of Christmas trees and a cozy fire place.
Lego Spider-Man Advent Calendar 2024
Save 30% on the Lego Spider-Man Advent Calendar 2024 on Amazon. It's the first time that Lego has done a Spidey advent calendar, and we hope it's not the last.
There are five excellent minifigures included here — Spider-Man, Green Goblin, Miles Morales, Ghost-Spider and Venom — along with a selection of mini-builds. There's a Christmassy Spider-Ham, Peter Parker's desk, a drum kit and, naturally, a Christmas tree, amongst other things.
