Christmas Day falls on Friday 24th December this year, so the last delivery days come around fast. Here are the 2026 order deadlines for Edible Blooms hampers, chocolate bouquets and gifts, so yours arrives in time.
Christmas 2026 order deadlines at a glance
| Delivery type | Last day to order | Arrives |
|---|---|---|
| Regional and overnight delivery (Australia-wide) | 3pm, Tuesday 22 December | Before Christmas Day |
| Same-day metro delivery (Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth) | 12pm (midday), Thursday 24 December | Christmas Eve |
Until Christmas Eve, our usual same-day cut-off applies: order by 3pm Monday to Friday or 12pm Saturday for delivery that day.
Where can I get same-day Christmas delivery?
Same-day delivery is available across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth. We also deliver same day to the Gold Coast, Wollongong, McLaren Vale and the Fleurieu Peninsula, where earlier booking times apply. Everywhere else in Australia receives standard delivery in 1-3 business days, which is why the regional cut-off is earlier.
5 tips to make sure your Christmas gift arrives on time
- Order early in the week. The closer you get to Christmas Eve, the more popular hampers sell out.
- Choose date-guaranteed delivery if the day matters. It is available within 25km of the CBD in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth.
- Send to a workplace before the break. Business deliveries arrive before 5pm, but check the office is open on the day you choose.
- Add a safe drop authority at checkout in case no one is home.
- Include ward and room details when sending to someone in hospital.
