There were a ton of new LEGO sets released last week, but some of the most popular ones available aren't meant to be built until the holiday season. A total of six LEGO Advent calendars for 2025 were just released on September 1, but both Amazon and Walmart are already offering pretty nice discounts. If you are looking for a fun alternative to the usual candy-filled Advent calendars you or your kids usually open in December, these LEGO versions are an absolute delight.
Only some of the new Advent calendars are currently getting a significant discount, however. Both the LEGO City and LEGO Friends options are getting pretty big price reductions well ahead of the holidays. These were already the least expensive of the bunch due to not being directly tied to an outside IP, so the price cut just makes them even more affordable. The other calendars are getting slight discounts at Walmart only, so you can save on those as well if you're willing to spend a bit more.
LEGO Advent Calendar Sale at Amazon
Out of the two discounted calendars, the LEGO City build is the cheapest. At $25 it is significantly cheaper than its more popular counterparts. The LEGO Minecraft Advent Calendar, for example, is still sitting at $44.99. And while it isn't attached to a major franchise, it still includes a bunch of Christmas-themed minifigures and surprises that are great for kids (or adults). Hidden across 24 days you'll open up a mixture of little LEGO toy models as well as a tiny Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus. The calendar includes a total of 186 pieces and is meant for kids who are at least five years old.
The other Advent calendar currently on sale is the LEGO Friends one. The discount is a little bit less than the price reduction on the LEGO City one. What you actually get is quite different as well. Instead of minifigures you'll get a total of five minidolls and five pets. The little builds themselves are also a mix of furniture and other home related items that are compatible with other sets in the LEGO Friends line. This calendar includes a total of 237 pieces and is meant for kids who are at least six years old.

For an idea of what to expect from these Advent calendars, I'd recommend checking out our We Build for last year's editions. Along with the minifigures and little builds you'll open up each day, the box unfolds to allow for a larger holiday scene.
