The 48-year-old TV presenter will take part in the annual game show after weeks of secret talks with Channel 4, with the broadcaster seeing Claudia as the perfect panellist for the comedy special.
A source told the Daily Star newspaper: "Getting Claudia is a big win for producers. She is one of TV's biggest names. Claudia is exactly the sort of celeb they want. She is naturally very funny and game for a laugh."
Claudia will be joined by fellow panellists David Mitchell, James Acaster, Joe Lycett and Richard Ayoade, as well as 'Loose Women' star Stacey Solomon and presenter Maya Jama.
They will also be joined by host Jimmy Carr - who has fronted the show since 2004 - who will be asking the two teams an array of questions about the headlines from the past 12 months.
A Channel 4 spokesman added: "To which song did Donald Trump show off his dance moves this year? What unique present did Kanye give Kim for her birthday? What term was coined to sum up Harry and Meghan's move Stateside? And what did Vogue describe as being 2020's 'most erotically charged prop'?
"All these questions and many more will be answered. Question master Jimmy Carr is joined by a panel of celebrity quizzers as they compete to find out who remembers the most about the past 12 months."
Meanwhile, Jimmy previously recalled a time when Big Narstie took part in the quiz show but fell asleep during filming.
He said: "I like Big Narstie. He came on the 'Big Fat Quiz' a couple of years ago. It was sort of the first telly he did and he was really funny on it!
"Although it was a five-hour recording he had a sleep. He literally went to sleep in one of the parts. He had a little rest - he's such a funny bloke! You can't take it too seriously!"
