Originally, the tradition of Advent calendars was simple – often filled with tearaway tabs revealing a fun holiday themed image, a small piece of chocolate or bible verse. In recent years and likely thanks to the influence of the internet’s social media, there has been a significant rise in the popularity of luxurious Advent calendars. In 2023, you can now find an Advent calendar filled with anything from high-end skincare, wine, beer, dog toys, tea, legos, socks, gourmet jam, German chocolate and more! Advent calendars are no longer exclusive to children and instead, you will often find many adults scrambling to grab one of the coveted, viral advent calendars before stores like Costco and Aldi sell out. Have a unique interest or hobby? There’s an Advent calendar for that! Speaking of Costco I’ll be heading there this weekend to look for their Dog Advent Calendar and Wine Advent Calendar.
Click Here to see my video of Costco’s Advent calendars from previous years.
For the third year in a row, I’ve rounded up a wide range of advent calendars for adults and children alike. This is one of my favorite lists to compile because it really kicks off the holiday season for me! The Christmas holiday season is easily my favorite time of year and Advent calendars fill me with so many nostalgic feelings. As a reminder, if you are contemplating ordering an advent calendar for yourself or as an early present, I recommended ordering as soon as possible! Some of the advent calendars listed below are highly sought after and will sell out before December 1st.
