I love getting an advent calendar (or two or three!) to get me into the Christmas spirit. It’s one of those holiday traditions that sparks pure joy: who doesn’t want little chocolates shaped like candy canes or snowmen as the days get darker and the weather gets chillier? Or Lego minifigs, or mini scented candles, or whisky tasters?

This year, how about getting a festive-themed escape game advent calendar to count down to Christmas?

Let’s take a look at EXIT’s brand new advent calendar for 2026 and see how effectively it will get you into the Yuletide mood – and give your brain a fun workout at the same time.
