Grab Your 2023 LEGO Christmas Advent Calendars & Decorations

If we’re honest, it’s far too early to talk about Christmas, though the wet and windy UK weather makes it feel like we’re already in Autumn. That said, it’s never too early to get organised by ordering your favourite franchises in LEGO Advent Calendar-form to ensure you’re ready for the 2023 Christmas countdown.

Five new advent calendars have now been revealed on the LEGO website, encompassing Marvel Avengers, Star Wars, Harry Potter, LEGO Friends, and LEGO City. There’s also a cute set of three Gingerbread Ornaments, ideal for hanging on the Xmas tree or around the house.

All the new sets will be available from 1^st September 2023. Let’s take a closer look at what’s on offer…

LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar – 75366

£29.99

This new-for-2023 advent calendar continues the tradition of previous Star Wars calendars, with a fun assortment of characters, mini ships and small vehicles from TV shows and films such as The Clone Wars and The Bad Batch. This year has seen plenty of 40^th-anniversary releases for Return of the Jedi, and we’re excited to get our hands on that Emperor Palpatine in Xmas jumper, Leia in her Endor camouflage combat gear, and white-furred Ewok villager with village accessories!

Avengers Advent Calendar – 76267

£29.99

This year’s Marvel advent calendar is based around the Avengers-themed films from The MCU’s Infinity Saga, which means all the best superheroes and heroines in LEGO Minifigure form. The set includes 7 minifigures: Okoye, Doctor Strange, Captain America, Spider-Man, Wong, Iron Man and Black Widow. You can also get your hands on recognisable small-scale scenery pieces and vehicles such as the Quinjet and Hydra Train.

LEGO Harry Potter Advent Calendar – 76418

£29.99

The 2023 Harry Potter advent calendar takes witches and wizards to the village of Hogsmeade. The most exciting element of this new set is the inclusion of 6 new-for-September-2023 minifigures, including the first-ever brick-built Aberforth Dumbledore accompanied by new versions of Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, Draco Malfoy and Madam Rosmerta. Most of the characters can be seen wearing their winter coats and hats to keep warm, and there’s a handy selection of scenery on show, including plenty of valuable additions to any Hogsmeade diorama. We particularly like the Christmas trees and the Sirius Black wanted poster.

LEGO City Advent Calendar 2023 – 60381

£19.99

The best part of this advent calendar is how many figures and accessories you can get hold of to bulk out your LEGO City builds for the holiday season. The set is based around a festive Winter Wonderland event, with minifigures of Mr and Mrs Claus, a group of carol singers, an ice sculpturist, a snowman, a reindeer, and a cute puppy and kitten. Funky fixtures include a roast turkey on a table, Santa’s sleigh, a grandfather clock, and gifts to place under the tree.

LEGO Friends Advent Calendar 2023 – 41758

£19.99

Here’s a great option for parents with kids who adore the LEGO Friends theme. Each door on the LEGO Friends set opens to reveal a mini-doll, micro-doll, or mini-build based around the pets of Heartlake City. The new generation of LEGO Friends characters can also ride on a miniature Xmas train, accompanied by the cats, dogs and rabbits included in the box.

Gingerbread Ornaments – 40642

£10.99

Grabbing a few new decorations for the Christmas tree is always fun. Every family has a box of ornaments they dig out each year, and many of the hanging items soon become hanging memories, taking you back to a vintage year. End 2023 with a slice of gingerbread with these three buildable brick characters, complete with goofy eyes and seasonal clothing! They could also be used to decorate a mantelpiece, mirror or even a doorknob.
