Wrexham
Wrexham, United KingdomEveryone loves an underdog; if that underdog lived anywhere, it would be Wrexham. A city full of history, hard-working and friendly people, nationally important businesses, and Wrexham AFC, the oldest football club in Wales, the third oldest club in the world, and the star of the hit TV series Welcome To Wrexham.
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.45 minutes • Admission Ticket FreeView Location2

However, we're here for something more interesting than the food and drink - the mural on the exterior of the pub.
The murals on the exterior of the Fat Boar have seen fans of both the Wrexham AFC, the Welsh National Team, and Welcome To Wrexham flock here in their droves. Whilst here, you will have the chance to have your photograph taken alongside the current mural, hear about previous paintings that have adorned the walls, and learn how some of the murals have had to be changed for legal reasons.

The Wrexham Miners Project is a museum like no other. Like so many other buildings and institutions in Wrexham, this building was saved by the Local people and converted into a museum.
Founded in memory of those who lost their lives in the Welsh mines, this building was once the Miner's Rescue Station - where miners would learn how to rescue injured colleagues after a collapse, or worse, an explosion.
While many people across the world associate the Valleys of South Wales with the mining tradition, mining took place across Wales, and it is in our blood. Across the UK, 48% of major mining accidents happened in Wales, and this museum houses a memorial to the 234 people who died in the 1934 Gresford Mining Disaster. This disaster was featured in Season Two of Welcome To Wrexham.
Whilst here you will learn how rescue teams were trained, and even get the chance to put yourself through some of their tests.
Who knows, you might even get the chance to meet a celebrity or two while here!10 minutes • Admission Ticket FreeView Location
The Racecourse Ground(Pass By)
Mold Road, Wrexham, United Kingdom, LL11 2AHThe Racecourse (or Cae Ras in Welsh) is the oldest international soccer stadium in the world that is still in continual use. Today, it is (almost) as famous as those bigger, shinier international stadia such as Wembley and is home to Wrexham AFC, the oldest soccer club in Wales.
Put more plainly this stadium is the heart of Wrexham.
Entry into the grounds and inside the stadium is not guaranteed due to match schedules, filming days, closed practices, and factors beyond our control. That said there will be time for pictures outside the stadium, and your guide will explain not only this clubs fantastic history, but also its bright future now that Rob McElhenny and Ryan Reynolds have taken ownership of Wrexham AFC.
