Don't let those Hollywood A-listers fool you. They're not the stars! It's the city and people of Wrexham who make the series the hit thing to watch. Local people are passionate about their city and their football club, and the people of Wrexham (or Wrecsam in Welsh) constantly bounce back after every attempt to knock them down.
As you walk around the city streets, who knows what you will see, or indeed who, as our passionate, knowledgeable local guide, who is also a die-hard Wrexham AFC supporter, leads you on a tour that includes not only the filming locations from Welcome to Wrexham but also Wrexham's illustrious history.1 hour • Admission Ticket FreeView Location4
