The LEGO City Advent Calendar 2026 counts down to Christmas with 24 daily surprises packed into 252 pieces, including festive mini builds and a cast of holiday characters like Santa, Mrs. Claus, three elves, a snowman, and a baby reindeer figure. The box itself folds out into a Santa's workshop playmat, giving kids a ready-made backdrop for holiday storytelling and imaginative play once all the windows have been opened. Building instructions are printed directly inside each calendar window, making the daily builds accessible even for first-time LEGO builders. Designed for kids aged 5 and up, the set also pairs well with other LEGO City sets, allowing the minifigures and accessories to carry on into broader City adventures long after the holiday season. At $34.99, it works well as a pre-Christmas gift for young LEGO fans who enjoy both building and character-driven play.
