The Wasgij Advent Calendar 2026 consists of 24 separate mini-puzzles, each with 54 pieces — one for each day from 1 to 24 December. Behind each little door is a jigsaw puzzle that you must complete before the Christmas scene is revealed. That is precisely the Wasgij concept: you piece together what the characters see, not what is shown on the box. The 2026 edition is now available as Pre-order for €32.99, with delivery expected on 5 September 2026.

What’s changing about your Advent?
A normal Advent calendar is empty after ten seconds. Not this one. Every morning in December, you’ll unpack a fresh 54-piece jigsaw puzzle — it might take five to ten minutes, but the scene remains hidden until you’ve placed the final piece. You’ll enjoy the Wasgij surprise 24 times. After 24 December, you’ll have a small collection of Christmas scenes that you’ve built together, which you can hang up or keep.
This works particularly well for families with children aged 7 and over: the jigsaw puzzles are small enough to put together as a family before school, but the Wasgij clue keeps even adults on their toes. And unlike chocolate advent calendars, you don’t have to share this one — unless you want to.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a standard Wasgij jigsaw puzzle and the Advent calendar?
A standard Wasgij jigsaw puzzle features one large picture comprising between 500 and 2,000 pieces. The advent calendar consists of 24 separate mini-puzzles, each with 54 pieces, one for each day. The Wasgij principle — you piece together the scene the characters are looking at, not the image on the box — applies here too, but in a format you can complete in a single morning.
From what age is the Wasgij Advent Calendar suitable?
The recommended age is Aged 7 and over. The puzzle pieces are compact but easy for children to handle, whilst the Wasgij twist ensures the challenge remains relevant for adults too.
When will the pre-order be delivered?
The expected delivery date is 5 September 2026. That’s well over three months before December, so you can give the calendar as a present in good time or get it ready yourself for the Advent season.
Is stock limited?
Yes. Wasgij Advent calendars are produced in limited numbers each year and usually sell out within a few weeks. By pre-ordering now, you can secure your copy at the current price of € 32,99. Once it’s gone, it’s gone.
