Advent calendars are no longer your simple holiday countdown with chocolate behind each door.

Nowadays, many are full of luxury goods — and can set you back thousands of dollars.

Advent calendars are a way to run up to Christmas by opening a numbered door or box — typically 24 total — each day to reveal a festive favor.

Between the nostalgia that they bring and the rise of social media and unboxing videos, brands have capitalized on the trend, offering options for all kinds of tastes and budgets.

Perfume, skincare, candles and even jewelry can now be found behind those windows.

Here are some of the most luxe Advent presentation of 2024:

Lark & Berry Make the Right Call Advent Calendar — The Royal Connection ($114,639)

The limited-edition Lark & Berry Luxury Advent Calendar is a 12-day countdown that resembles an iconic British phone booth, and each compartment has fine jewelry, luxury piercings or both — all solid gold.

It’s available in four different options, with the most expensive being the Royal Connection — which will cost you a whopping $114,639.

If you want to opt for one of the “cheaper” ones, you could get the Luxe Line ($24,659), the Diamond Call ($11,678) or the Classic Dial ($5,187).

The selection is customizable based on personal preference, and the exterior of the phone booth can also include a name and the interior a meaningful message.
