You’d have to be living under a rock over the last few months to miss the fact that Advent calendars are huge for this year, not just for women but men too!
Advent calendars are a great way to kick off the festive season due to the count-down to the big day hype that the calendars cause. As kids, we probably looked forward to opening a door on our calendar as much as we did for opening our presents on xmas day – maybe this feeling of joy has never really left us and is why as adults, we love nothing more than kicking off the official xmas countdown than exploring what treat lies behind a cardboard door.
We’re excited for Christmas 2019 and we want you to be too. So here is our official list of the best advent calendars for men, ones you’d want to ask your partner & family for, and the best advent calendars for women, ones you would love to gift the special ladies in your life.
