The Racecourse Ground
Home to Wrexham A.F.C, visiting The Racecourse Ground (Welsh: Y Cae Ras) is a superb thing to do in Wrexham.
Explore the world’s oldest international football stadium that still hosts international matches, the largest stadium in North Wales and the fifth largest in Wales.
The ground has a long history, which begins in October 1864. This was when Wrexham football club played their first game, after being formed in the local Turf Hotel public house. The team, however, played their home games in the 1881–82 and 1882–83 seasons at the Recreation Ground in Rhosddu.
Prior to the club, the Racecourse was mainly used for cricket and horse racing! Fast forward to 2021, when Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney took control of the team in February.
Today, you can catch a game at The Racecourse Ground for £21 for adults, £16 for over 65/under 21, £9 for under 18 and £5 for under 11.
