“Wrexham Docuseries Secures Renewal Through 2029 for Three More Seasons”
Disney+ has ordered three further seasons of the FX documentary Welcome to Wrexham. The move was announced in a press release on Friday, April 10, 2026. The renewal brings the show to eight seasons and is expected to run through 2029.
Multi-season order and production team
This marks the first multi-season renewal for the series. Rob Mac and Ryan Reynolds serve as executive producers. They praised the documentary team and said they were pleased to continue telling the club’s story.
Upcoming season details
The series first premiered in 2022. An eight-episode fifth season will begin on May 15, 2026. It documents Wrexham’s first Championship campaign in more than 40 years.
The new season also covers the club’s FA Cup run to the fifth round. Matches against Premier League teams Chelsea and Nottingham Forest are featured. Wrexham Women’s pursuit of their first Adran Premier title is included too.
Sporting context and prospects
At the time of the announcement, Phil Parkinson’s side sat seventh in the Championship. They were one place and two points outside the play-offs. The multi-season pickup raises the possibility of following the club into the Premier League.
Commercial impact and ownership
The club does not receive direct payment from the series. Still, the renewal is an important commercial boost. As Filmogaz.com reported in 2025, the show is considered Wrexham’s biggest commercial asset.
That spotlight has helped attract major sponsors. It has also accelerated the club’s growth as a global brand.
Club trajectory and recent deals
Mac and Reynolds completed their takeover in 2021. Under their ownership, Wrexham rose from the fifth-tier National League to the Championship. The climb included three successive promotions.
A minority stake in the club was sold to Apollo Sports Capital in December.
The Wrexham docuseries secures renewal through 2029 and adds three additional seasons. The decision gives the show a long runway to document the club’s next chapters.
