Burger King’s third‑year holiday advent calendar promises a miniature fast‑food restaurant for $19.54 – but only 110 units drop each day for a few minutes.
Key points
- Only 110 calendars are released each day from Nov. 16‑20, making the product extremely scarce.
- The $19.54 price references Burger King’s founding year, 1954.
- A text reminder (ADVENT to 251‑251) can help shoppers be ready for the 12 p.m. ET drop.
- Day 12 completes the miniature store and includes a $5 Royal Perks digital coupon.
Burger King announced that its limited‑edition 2026 holiday advent calendar is returning for a third consecutive year. Unlike chocolate‑filled boxes, the BK Advent Calendar lets buyers assemble a fully functional miniature Burger King restaurant over 12 days, featuring mini versions of the Whopper, nuggets, the King’s Booth and a soda fountain.
The calendar retails for $19.54 – a nod to the year the chain was founded (1954). It will be sold exclusively on BKAdventCalendar.com, with only 110 units released each day at 12 p.m. ET from Nov. 16 through Nov. 20, while supplies last. The limited stock mirrors the sell‑out speed of the previous two years, when the calendars vanished in under five minutes.
What the 2026 BK Advent Calendar Offers
Each of the 12 doors contains a piece of the Burger King experience. On Day 12, the collected items form a complete miniature storefront, and buyers receive a $5 digital coupon code for Royal Perks members, adding a tangible reward to the collectible set.
"We know Guests will be excited that for the third year in a row, the Advent Calendar is back, and it's the best one ever," said Joel Yashinsky, Chief Marketing Officer for Burger King US&C. "These limited‑edition Advent Calendars sell out fast, and we know our Guests are always looking for more holiday fun from BK. So this year, fans can build their very own BK restaurant… It's our one‑of‑a‑kind way to celebrate the season."
When and Where to Buy
Fans can secure a reminder by texting “ADVENT” to 251‑251, which will alert them when the first drop goes live. Given the tight daily allotment, marking the calendar and setting a reminder are recommended steps for anyone hoping to add the mini‑restaurant to their holiday décor.
