The Christmas season is nearly upon us, and if you’re an avid LEGO fan you might already be googling โwhen does LEGO release Christmas sets in 2026?’ The good news is the new LEGO Christmas 2026 sets are out now, with LEGO’s festive range rolling out from 1 October!
We have the full lineup of LEGO’s new Christmas sets and advent calendars for 2026, so the kids can get their lists ready for Santa. Here’s your ultimate Christmas LEGO 2026 shopping list!
Building Christmas LEGO sets is a tradition in our family and they are a wonderful way to encourage creative play (as well as developing fine motor skills) and have everyone taking a break from the festivities and building together during the holiday season.
Note these are limited edition, seasonal LEGO sets so they do often sell out well before Christmas and are not re-released in future years. This list is updated regularly as LEGO announces the new range, so be sure to check back in!
NEW FOR 2026: LEGO Icons Holiday House 11387
Welcome to the LEGOยฎ Icons Holiday House (11387), the newest addition to the popular LEGO Winter Village Collection. Take time out to craft a cosy, snow-topped home inspired by the much-loved song Jingle Bells.
The house has a wraparound porch trimmed with garlands, holly and golden bells, and the set also includes an open sleigh pulled by a single horse and a Christmas tree that lights up. Inside, look for candy canes, stockings, wrapped presents and a pumpkin pie fresh from the oven, plus vintage touches including a phonograph, a mantel clock and an old-style rotary phone.
It makes a lovely gift for Winter Village collectors. The 1,354-piece set is rated 18+ and comes with two separate instruction books, so younger family members can build the sleigh as the grown-ups put the house together. Interactive 3D instructions and a Build Together feature for group builds are also available through the LEGO Builder app.
