The ever popular 2024 Aldi Advent Calendars are NOW LIVE in stores. Each year you can choose from multiple themes – from pets to cheese. Take a look at what we spotted for 2024! 

Aldi Advent Calendars 2024

2024 Aldi Advent Calendars JUST hit local stores and they don't disappoint!  These are SO POPULAR every year and have a high risk of selling out, so be sure to head to your store if you spot one you want to grab. 

Advent calendars at Aldi are so fun and they do have so many different options.  They have themed advent calendars like Jurassic Park and Matchbox Cars, chocolate advent calendars, DOG and cat advent calendars, and …. cheese advent calendars?!  (It's a real thing and such a cute idea!)

Here's what we spotted in stores for 2024: 

Emporium Selection Cheese Village Advent Calendar – $16.99

This cheese calendar is one of the most highly coveted items every year.  You'll see people making a run to the back of the store where the cheeses are – and this cheese advent calendar is what they are after!   Each calendar has 24 festive mini cheeses in it (and some of them are specialty cheeses!).

Heart to Tail Pure Being Dog Advent Calendar – $7.99

This dog treat calendar has 25 treats in it and is the Pure Being brand.  My store only had dog treat calendars, but yours may have cat as well, so keep an eye out!

Heart To Tail Dog or Cat Toy Advent Calendar – $9.99

This is a fun addition for pets!  This advent calendar has toys instead of treats 🙂

LEGO Disney Advent Calendar – $39.99 

We LOVE Aldi's prices on most things – but unless you're in a bind, it's probably best to grab the LEGO Advent Calendars somewhere else.  We've seen these at a nice discount at other retailers so far this year.

Mini Puzzle Advent Calendar – $9.99

Harry Potter Advent Calendar – $29.99

Benner Tea Co Tea Advent Calendar – $7.99

I believe this one is new this year!  You get 2 tea bags a day and is such a fun early gift if you have a tea lover in your life.

Barissimo Coffee Advent Calendar – $13.99 

This coffee advent calendar is one of the MOST popular every year.  PPP team member Amber grabbed this one last year and loved having a surprise flavor of K-Cup every day.

Scented Candle Advent Calendar – $29.99 

This might be one of the coolest things I've seen at Aldi so far.  LOTS of people love the different Aldi Candles that they have through the year, and for the advent season there are two options for candle advent calendars. **NOTE that this one is HEAVY!**

Choceur Milk Chocolate Advent Calendar – $1.29

This is actually 20¢ cheaper than last year!

Note that typically there is a LIMIT 2 on each of these advent calendars.  My store originally tried to only allow limit of 2 total, but then clarified that it was a limit of 2 of the same type.  Just be aware as you plan your shop! 

Has Aldi always had calendars like this?

Aldi has been around since I was young, but they didn't start with advent calendars in store until 2018. Their first calendar was the wine advent calendar, and it has just grown from there each year.

In 2021, they offered a whopping 20 different advent calendars.  For 2022, we saw 28 different Aldi Advent Calendars – WOW!

While not all stores carry ALL of the calendars, the cheese advent calendar, dog advent calendar, coffee advent calendar, and chocolates are widely available at most stores.

The cheese advent calendar is typically back with the deli cheeses, while the other Aldi advent calendars are with the Aldi Finds items (or on a nearby end cap).  

It's also important to note that most Aldi stores just get one shipment of calendars – so typically what you see is all they have available.

When is the release date for the 2024 Aldi Advent calendar?

2024 advent calendars were released in stores November 6, 2024.  We will update for 2025 as soon as we have a release date!

Where can I buy Aldi Advent and Holiday Calendars?

The Aldi holiday calendars are ONLY available in store at select Aldi stores.  Also note that some items are prohibited by the state you live in (for example, items with alcohol can not be sold in stores in Pennsylvania).

If you get VERY lucky to have an Aldi Instacart shopper picking items up for you in store, they *may* be able to grab you a calendar as well, but this depends heavily on your shopper and the stock that your store has.

Tips for Shopping at Aldi

• Check out your Aldi online weekly ad over HERE before you shop.
• Aldi requires you to bring your own bags (or you can purchase them for $.06 per bag at the store.)
• You'll need to pay a quarter to use a cart at Aldi. When you return the cart, you'll get the quarter back.
• Aldi does not accept manufacturer coupons (however they have had a few Aldi Store coupons recently in a few local papers.)
• Aldi sale ad varies by store.
