The Racecourse Ground on Mold Road is the oldest international football stadium still in use. Wrexham have played here since 1864. Visiting supporters usually find a compact, traditional four-sided ground rather than a bowl: two long stands along the touchlines and a stand behind each goal. Capacity for football is around 10,700–12,600 depending on how the Kop end is configured while the new stand is built.
Away fans are almost always placed in the University End section of the Wrexham Lager Stand (the two-tier main stand on the north side of the pitch). Enter through turnstiles 1–4 at the rear of that stand. Check your ticket: home supporters in the same stand use different gates. A few pillars between the tiers can clip the view, so if you care about sightlines avoid seats directly behind a column. Alcohol is sold outside the away area as well as on the concourse.
The STōK Cold Brew Coffee Stand (still called the Tech End or University End by locals) sits behind the west goal. It holds about 3,000 and is where much of the home noise now lives. The opposite goal, at the Crispin Lane / Town End, is The Kop. The old terrace has gone; a temporary stand has been used while Populous designs a new Kop of several thousand, with safe standing planned. Family seating is in the Mold Road Stand nearest the Kop corner. The Mold Road (Macron) Stand itself is the 1999 lottery-funded stand along the south touchline, with boxes, the TV gantry and The Changing Rooms restaurant.
Postcode for sat-nav is LL11 2AH. From the A483 take the Mold junction and follow town-centre signs; the ground appears quickly on Mold Road. Wrexham General station is about a third of a mile away — walk towards the multi-storey car park, turn onto Mold Road and you will cross the railway before the stands come into view. Matchday parking near the ground is tight; allow extra time. The Turf Hotel on Mold Road, in the shadow of the Macron Stand, is the historic pub where the club was founded and is the obvious pre-match stop if you arrive early.
The stadium is cashless. Bags should be A4-size or smaller and will be searched. Food and drink cannot be brought in. Kiosks sit under the stands; Jonesy’s Bar is in the University End. Stewards are used to travelling support and the atmosphere is generally good-humoured, though the home end will be loud if Wrexham are chasing a result. Flag space is limited and anything political or commercial will be turned away.
For a first visit, give yourself twenty minutes after arriving to walk the Mold Road frontage and clock which gate is yours. The pitch is 102 m by 68 m with the goals immediately in front of the Kop and STōK stands as shown above. Dress for North Wales weather: the temporary Kop end can be exposed. If you want the best all-round view rather than the away pocket, the central Mold Road seats are the ones locals recommend — but on an away ticket you will be in the Lager Stand wing, looking across at the Macron roof and down towards whichever goal Wrexham are attacking in that half.
