If you’ve been waiting for a reason to feel like a kid again, Burger King has you covered with a new limited-edition advent calendar that’s sure to spark memories of your favorite fast-food moments. After last year’s viral release sold out in under five minutes, BK is reviving its festive countdown tradition with a fresh lineup of twelve nostalgic surprises. Read on to find out what’s inside this year’s advent calendar and how you can get your hands on this exclusive collectible before it’s gone.
Burger King unwraps a nostalgic 2025 advent calendar
This year’s edition takes the holiday fun up a notch with a 12-drawer box styled like a vintage brown-paper-wrapped parcel — a charming nod to old-school packaging that perfectly fits the brand’s retro theme. Each drawer hides a unique surprise, turning the countdown to Christmas into a daily dose of fast-food nostalgia.
Inside, fans will find a mix of quirky collectibles and playful keepsakes, including a JD the Dog plushie, an inflatable chair, Cini Mini candles, a Stout King chia seed sprouter, cookie cutters with a matching tin, a Coca-Cola keychain, a fanny pack, two ornaments, a BK puzzle cube, a retro magnet, and even a mini Burger King board game. Together, they transform Burger King’s iconic history into a fun, grown-up holiday tradition.
Priced at $19.54 — a tribute to the year Burger King was founded — the set packs over $100 worth of exclusive merch, according to the chain.
“The holidays are all about creating moments of joy, and our BK Advent Calendar is designed to do just that in a very BK way,” said Joel Yashinsky, Chief Marketing Officer, Burger King US&C, in a statement. “After the incredible response to our first-ever advent calendar last year, which sold out in less than five minutes, we knew we had to bring it back again this year with 12 new and exciting gifts designed to bring friends and families together.”
