Brown is among the names confirmed for the festive special, which will also include Fern Britton, John Barrowman and Vince Cable MP hitting the dancefloor.
The 83-year-old soap star will be the oldest ever contestant on the BBC One reality show and is to be partnered by Italian pro Vincent Simone.
"I'm terrified and apprehensive about what I've let myself in for, I must be barmy and I'm not
sure what’s come over me," said Brown.
"I just hope I can remember the steps to the routines. I’m looking forward to working with the professional dancers and the other contestants."
