Five adult advent calendars are still in stock for 2026: Womanizer Enjoy ($88.99, 24 days, best for beginners), Womanizer Couples ($168.99, 24 days, for two), Lovehoney Indulge ($105.99, 12 days), Lovehoney Romance featuring We-Vibe ($113.99, 7 days) and a $9.99 scratch-off dare calendar. To open door one on December 1, order by Monday, November 16 on Economy or Friday, November 20 on Expedited.
Somewhere along the way, advent calendars grew up. The cardboard door with a waxy chocolate behind it is still out there, but so is a box of 24 doors from Womanizer, and one of them is a whole toy.
Adult advent calendars sell out every year, and the good ones go first. We already lost one: the Womanizer Luxury calendar has sold out at our supplier. So here are the five still standing for 2026, what is actually in them, who each one suits, and the date you need to order by to open door one on December 1.
How to choose one
Three questions get you most of the way there.
Solo or for two? Some calendars are built for one person exploring, some are a nightly date for a couple, and a couple of them happily do both.
How many doors? Twenty-four is the classic December countdown. Twelve is a shorter run (start December 13, or do the twelve days of Christmas). Seven is the final week, for people who prefer a few bigger surprises to a lot of small ones.
How much do you want to know? Some brands tell you exactly what is inside. Others keep it a surprise on purpose. Neither is better, but it helps to know which you are buying.
The five worth opening
The price per door
Not the whole story, since a calendar with a few bigger pieces costs more per door, but useful when you are comparing:
- Couple's Advent-Ure Scratch Calendar: about 42 cents a door (24 doors)
- Womanizer Enjoy: about $3.71 a door (24 doors)
- Womanizer Couples: about $7.04 a door (24 doors)
- Lovehoney Indulge: about $8.83 a door (12 doors)
- Lovehoney Romance: about $16.28 a door (7 doors)
Which one, in one line
- First toy, or a gift for someone new to this: Womanizer Enjoy.
- A December of date nights: Womanizer Couples.
- A treat for yourself, without committing to 24 days: Lovehoney Indulge.
- The final week, done big: Lovehoney Romance.
- A stocking stuffer, or something to pair with a toy: the scratch calendar.
Order by these dates
December 1 is a Tuesday, and Thanksgiving week slows every carrier. To have your calendar in hand for door one:
- Economy shipping: order by Monday, November 16.
- Expedited shipping: order by Friday, November 20.
After that it may still arrive in the first few days of December. You can always open two doors on the day it lands. We will not tell.
Every order ships in plain, unmarked packaging with discreet billing, so the only surprise is the one behind the doors.
A few tips for the month
One door a day. It is tempting to open them all on the first night. The calendar is better as a build-up, and the bigger pieces are usually near the end.
Keep lube and batteries nearby. Some calendars include small toys that need a charge or a battery to get going. Charge anything rechargeable when you open it, so it is ready the next night.
Wash new toys before first use. Warm water and a mild soap or a toy cleaner, then let them dry.
All five calendars are in one place, with stock counts that will only go down from here.
