The 59-year-old I'm A Celebrity... winner will appear in Cinderella at The Mayflower theatre later this year.
Biggins' recent reality TV success made his acting services the subject of a bidding war, according to The Mirror.
"Undoubtedly my success on I'm a Celebrity... has brought me to a new audience," said Biggins.
"I think it would be fair to say that has led to a record fee for pantomime. I'm not going to say what that fee is, but I can say if the show does well I wouldn't do too badly."
A spokesperson for the theatre added: "This was a major coup. He is one of the greatest pantomime stars of all time."
Tickets for the show go on sale later this month.
