Aldi Announces 2024 Advent Calendar Lineup
Aldi has announced its Advent calendar selection for the 2024 holiday season. This year’s calendars feature a range of themes from wine and cheese to toys and pet treats. Advent calendars will be on store shelves the morning of November 6th. This is the first Wednesday in November, which Aldi has deemed National Advent Calendar Day.
National Advent Calendar Day at Aldi is an event with a magnitude and level of hype similar to Black Friday for other retailers. Aldi fans are known to line up outside the store in the early morning hours in hopes of scoring limited quantities of wine Advent calendars and other goodies.
Needless to say, all of these calendars are Aldi Finds. That means each store gets one shipment, and these products don’t get restocked after they sell out. You also can’t order Aldi products online if they’re sold out at your local store. So if you want these calendars, and especially if you want some of the most popular ones, you’ll want to get to your local Aldi ASAP on November 6th.
Without further ado, here is the Aldi Advent calendar lineup for 2024.

Which Advent calendars do you have your eye on this year at Aldi? Leave us a comment letting us know which ones you plan to buy.
A yarn Advent calendar would have been welcomed by knitters and crocheters. Just a teeny-tiny (10-25g) skein of acrylic yarn for each day would be greatly appreciated. Hobby Lobby (I Love This Yarn mini-skeins) and Knit Picks/WeCrochet (Brava Minis) already offer packs of mini-skeins of nearly the right quantity, although not with an Advent calendar theme. And Yarnspirations has introduced Red Heart Super Saver Craft Kits, each containing 12 50g skeins of yarn, enough for a “12 Days of Christmas” theme, if they wanted to go that route. Aldi in the USA has sold yarn in the past, so why not yarn Advent calendars?
Thank you for the great list. These calendars are great for gift giving – I have definitely stood in live early in the morning to get the wind calendars when they first came out. Now I have a grand daughter who would love the Bluey calendar. MM
The Aldi preview ad has the LEGO calendar for $39.99 not $24.99 as shown here. These calendar are usually $40-$45.
Thanks for pointing that out. We got the $24.99 price from an Aldi social media post, but that does sound low for a LEGO product. We’ve edited the post above to reflect that disparity. We’re guessing the real price is $39.99. We’ll know for sure once the calendars arrive in stores on the 6th.
