From 1973 Sydney Clubs to Stadium Cannons and Hells Bells
Since brothers Malcolm and Angus Young formed AC/DC in Sydney, Australia, in November 1973, the band’s high-voltage rhythm guitars and arena pyrotechnics have defined hard rock across both the Bon Scott and Brian Johnson eras. Packaged in a matte-black rigid paperboard collector box stamped with the crimson-and-silver lightning-bolt logo, ADVENT CALENDAR 2026, and LET THERE BE ROCK, the AC/DC Rock Legends Ornament Advent Calendar turns December into a 24-day backstage pass. The full-wrap cover illustration depicts Angus Young front and center in his burgundy velvet schoolboy uniform playing a cherry-red Gibson SG alongside Brian Johnson in his flat cap, Malcolm and Stevie Young, Phil Rudd, and Cliff Williams before the bronze church bell and dual stage cannons.

Opening the 24 compartments in the clear molded inner tray reveals three-dimensional band figures spanning the group’s classic lineup: Angus Young mid-duckwalk jump in his burgundy schoolboy suit, Bon Scott carrying Angus on his shoulders during a live solo, Bon Scott in a striped sleeveless top playing Scottish bagpipes, Brian Johnson in his trademark newsboy cap at the microphone, Malcolm Young playing his natural-wood Gretsch rhythm guitar, Cliff Williams on bass, and Phil Rudd seated behind an AC/DC double-cymbal drum kit. Six additional character statues and album vignettes capture the High Voltage power-box scene with Angus holding a yellow lightning bolt beside a dog, Blow Up Your Video Angus with live wires sparking from his hands, horned Angus on a devil-horn A pedestal, a monochrome silver Ballbreaker switchboard relief figure, the burnished bronze STIFF UPPER LIP Angus statue, and a white-robed stage priest figure standing behind an altar.
Concert Pyrotechnic Props and Five Decades of Album Badges
Arena tour spectacles anchor the stage-prop compartments: the For Those About to Rock cannon firing electric-blue smoke bursts beneath an AC/DC crest, the aged silver-and-red bronze church bell inscribed AC/DC hells bells with a guitar clapper, the Rock N Roll Train locomotive diorama with giant Rosie astride the engine, and a sculpted green AC/DC MONEYTALKS one-dollar bill bearing Angus Young’s portrait. Seven dimensional album plaques complete the 24-piece tribute—the horned rock-hand skull inscribed I’M ON THE HIGHWAY TO HELL, the fiery circular HIGHWAY TO HELL band medallion, the matte-black and silver BACK IN BLACK plaque, the cartoon fly on a FLY ON THE WALL brick base, the torn-metal THE RAZORS EDGE emblem, the stone-carved ROCK OR BUST badge, and the neon-red PWR UP plaque.

Every ornament is fitted with a top metallic gold eyelet ring and gold hanging cord for suspending from Christmas tree branches, while pedestal-based statues and stage props stand upright beside a turntable, guitar amp, or vinyl shelf long after December ends. Classic rock collectors building a multi-band holiday tree can pair this set with The Who rock advent calendar for a full stadium-rock countdown.
