City Advent Calendar 2022

The LEGO City Advent Calendar 2022 spreads 287 pieces across 24 doors, each hiding a small vehicle, figure or winter scene from the City universe. With six minifigures, it's noticeably more figure-rich than most sets of a similar size. Rather than one single model, it builds up into a growing winter scene over the course of December.

Description

24 small surprises, not one model

Unlike a regular set, the advent calendar doesn't come with one single build; instead it offers 24 individual mini-builds meant to be assembled one per day. That structure spreads the 287 pieces across many short building sessions, which makes the calendar especially appealing for children who want a fresh, quickly finished result every day rather than working through one large project over several hours. Each door can be opened and built independently of the others, so the daily build time usually runs to just a few minutes.

Six minifigures for a full winter scene

With six minifigures, the calendar brings noticeably more characters than most similarly sized sets, since several of the doors reveal their own small figure. Combined with the vehicles and decorative elements, this gradually builds into a complete winter scene featuring several characters rather than a single vehicle taking centre stage. The figures are also revealed one at a time, adding an extra layer of surprise to each day's door.

Wintry colours from the City palette

White, reddish brown, red and black cover both snowy surfaces and typical City vehicle colours, letting buildings, vehicles and figures come together into one coherent scene. With 148 different parts across just 287 pieces, part variety runs very high, which makes sense given 24 distinct daily builds. The parts list on this page breaks down which colours and shapes belong to which day's build, useful for recreating a specific door on its own. All those small snowy surfaces and accessories are exactly why part variety spreads across the whole calendar instead of concentrating in a few large builds.

Useful beyond December

Once the last door is opened, the individual mini-builds can be freely combined into a custom winter landscape or worked into an existing City collection. Checking the parts list also turns up several figure and accessory pieces that combine well with other winter or Christmas-themed LEGO sets, useful for building out a larger winter town. That keeps the calendar useful as a source of ideas and spare parts well beyond the run-up to Christmas.
