7 October 2026

Wrexham have received council approval for their new 7,500-seat Kop stand at the Racecourse. The £70m development will increase the stadium’s capacity beyond 18,000 and is scheduled to be fully operational next season.

The rebuilt stand will add new dressing rooms, media and hospitality facilities while helping make the Racecourse suitable for Premier League football. Wrexham are also upgrading their academy, women’s team facilities and first-team infrastructure as part of their long-term expansion.
