Wrexham AFC Set for Pre-season Tour in Australia and New Zealand

Wrexham AFC, the club now globally known thanks to owners Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds, is set to embark on an exciting pre-season tour in Australia and New Zealand this coming July.

The Red Dragons, recently promoted to the Championship, will play three friendly matches against A-League clubs:

Match Schedule

  • Melbourne Victory – July 11 at Marvel Stadium

  • Sydney FC – July 15 at Allianz Stadium

  • Wellington Phoenix – July 19 at Sky Stadium

This tour marks a new chapter in Wrexham’s international branding, following the success of the “Welcome to Wrexham” documentary, which catapulted the club into global football consciousness.

McElhenney and Reynolds on Global Vision

In an official announcement, McElhenney and Reynolds shared their long-term ambitions:

“From the very beginning, we wanted to help make Wrexham a globally recognised team, town and brand.”

Their vision is now unfolding with this historic tour that will put Wrexham AFC in front of a whole new international audience.
