'''''Red Nose Day 2017''''' was a fund-raising event organised by [[Comic Relief]], broadcast live on [[BBC One]] and [[BBC Two]] from the evening of 24 March 2017 to early the following morning. This 2017 edition of [[Red Nose Day]] was part of the "Make Your Laugh Matter" campaign. It was held on Friday 24 March till Saturday 25 March 2017 from 7:00 pm to 2:30 am on BBC One.
 
==Location and format==
Following the closure of [[BBC Television Centre]] in 2013, Comic Relief has had to look for new venues to host the annual telethons as they were previously filmed live from Studio One. [[Sport Relief 2014]] was the first not to be filmed at Television Centre, but at the [[Copper Box]] in [[Olympic Park, London|London's Olympic Park]]. As a result, [[Red Nose Day 2015]] came live, for the first time in its history, from the heart of London in its most prestigious theatre, the [[London Palladium]].<ref>{{cite web|url= httphttps://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/comic-relief/11470203/Comic-Relief-2015-live.html|title=Comic Relief 2015: as it happened|date=14 March 2015|work= Daily Telegraph|accessdate=16 March 2015}}</ref>
 
For the 2017 telethon the broadcast was moved from the London Palladium to Building Six at [[The O2]]. This choice of venue, otherwise known as the "Comedy Superclub", also marks the change in tone and format of this year's telethon from an entertainment programme hosted by television presenters back to its original format, a comedy show hosted by comedians. This change in tone is also seen in the hosting line up which is dominated by comedians rather than presenters and for the first time in over 10 years does not feature [[Davina McCall]] or [[Claudia Winkleman]].
