contents Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $2$. We consider the commuting variety and the commuting nilpotent variety of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sp}_{2n}$, namely the sets $\mathcal{C}_2(\mathfrak{sp}_{2n})=\{ (x,y) \in \mathfrak{sp}_{2n} \times \mathfrak{sp}_{2n} \mid [x,y]=0\}$ and $\mathcal{C}_2^{\text{nil}}(\mathfrak{sp}_{2n})=\{ (x,y) \in \mathfrak{sp}_{2n} \times \mathfrak{sp}_{2n} \mid x,y \text{ nilpotent, } [x,y]=0\}$ and prove that they are both irreducible, of dimensions $\dim(\mathfrak{sp}_{2n}) + 2n$ and $\dim(\mathfrak{sp}_{2n}) + n-1$, respectively.
