How do LEGO Advent Calendars work?
A
LEGO® Advent Calendar consists of 24 compartments, each hiding a different surprise. Every day in December up to Christmas Eve, one door is opened to reveal a new element for building or play. Inside, there are minifigures, miniature vehicles, animals, holiday decorations, and special accessories tied to the chosen LEGO® theme. Many of these items are unique and do not appear in other sets, making them a special treat for collectors and brick enthusiasts. After opening all the doors, it is possible to create a custom festive scene or integrate the new elements into other
LEGO® sets.
