For one night only, Comic Relief, BBC Children in Need and BBC One are coming together for an evening of entertainment.
According to the channel, viewers should expect big surprises, money can't buy prizes and live music performances (from the artists' homes), with lots of famous faces coming together.
Paddy McGuinness will be hosting the show live alongside Matt Baker, Zoe Ball, Lenny Henry and Davina McCall. David Walliams and Matt Lucas will also be back on TV for the first time in over a decade with a new sketch.
The money raised by The Big Night In will be split equally between Comic Relief and Children in Need and will go on to support local charities and projects in the UK, so they can continue to provide vital emergency support.
BBC's Big Night In will air on 23 April at 7pm on BBC One and iPlayer.
