For little ones
Fans of LEGO, Harry Potter or both will love this Advent calendar LEGO set, complete with a Hogwarts Christmas-themed gift behind every door. They'll find festive mini-builds for each of the Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw houses, as well as their favourite characters, Christmas decorations and more.
You'll find lots more LEGO Advent calendars online, too – there's something for everyone, whether they love Disney or Spiderman. Looking for more great gift ideas for kids? Check out our guide here.
For the sweet tooth
Make the countdown to Christmas utterly delicious by picking up an Advent calendar packed with sweets or chocolate. In our Percy Pig Naughty or Nice Piglets Advent Calendar, you'll find a Percy-flavoured pink choc behind each door – and you'll get a bag of Naughty and Nice Piglet Sweets, too.
Colin fans will love our Colin the Caterpillar Chocolate Advent Calendar, with a Colin-themed milk chocolate to enjoy each day, and whole bag of Colin’s Greatest Bits to devour on the 25th. All our food Advent calendars are available in store now.
For something sophisticated
If you're looking for a subtly stylish advent calendar, we've got the perfect piece. Our wooden star Advent calendar looks great on a mantlepiece or sideboard – simply slot the shimmering star into each groove as you count down the days.
The twine hanging loop on the star means you can use it as a tree decoration come Christmas Day, too. For more Christmas decorating inspiration, read our tips here.
For the make-up lover
Benefit's The Gorgeous Grocer Beauty Advent calendar is the ultimate pre-Christmas treat for someone special (or yourself – we won't tell). Worth £295, but yours for £156, it features a selection of Benefit's most iconic make-up products.
You'll find the much-loved Benetint lip and cheek stain, the miraculous POREfessional face primer, the famously volumising BADgal BANG! mascara and so much more. Plus, all the products are housed in a super-cute pink crate you can reuse again and again.
