The offer will run from April 29th to July 11th, the day of the World Cup final.
Andy Benson, commercial director of Sony UK, says: "We understand that consumers will undoubtedly want to upgrade their kit as they gear up for the World Cup this summer, but cost is still an issue for most of us coming out of recession.
"This campaign is a good way to encourage the responsible disposal of old technology."
It kicks off with an ad campaign starring English football legends Stuart Pearce, Garham Taylor and Terry Venables, as well as TV star Kelly Brook and Scotland's Kenny Dalglish.
