Mr. Men Little Miss, Aardman, Disney among collaborations returning to mark Red Nose Day milestone

The launch of Red Nose Day marks the start of an exciting milestone year for Comic Relief, as the charity kick-starts its 40th birthday celebrations in 2025.

Live on BBC One, BBC Two and BBC iPlayer on Friday 21 March, this year’s Red Nose Day night of TV will invite viewers to join the nation for a nostalgia-fuelled evening of live performances, star-studded sketches and comedy.

This year’s Red Nose merchandise celebrates 40 years of Comic Relief, with classic designs from each of the past four decades – the 80s, 90s, Noughties and 2010s – up for grabs. There are also two new Noses making their Red Nose Day debut this year, including a very special Rare Ruby Nose, a sparkling addition to the classic line-up, and a Cupcake Nose.

Supporters can get their Red Noses from Amazon now, the official home of the Red Nose. The Red Nose collection and selected merchandise will also be available in Amazon Fresh stores from 26 February.

In addition, celebrating 20 years of ‘chari-tees’, TK Maxx is helping to bring back seven collaborations. The line-up includes Aardman, Charlie Mackesy, Disney, Mr. Men Little Miss, Peter Blake, Rachel Joy and Rankin.
