Paddington Buckingham Palace Advent Calendar 2026 Christmas Advent Calendar

The Paddington Buckingham Palace Advent Calendar 2026 is a 24-day Christmas countdown made from a paper outer box with a moulded plastic inner tray and 24 acrylic (mica) ornaments inside. It is designed for Paddington fans, families and anyone who enjoys a small decorative surprise each day through December.

Some advent calendars are forgotten after the first week. This one gives the countdown a little more character, with a new illustrated ornament behind every perforated window and a display box that feels made for the festive season.
