Wrexham have learned their fixture schedule for the 2024/25 League One season with their return to the third tier kicking off with the visit of Wycombe Wanderers.
The Red Dragons will play in League One for the first time since the 2004/05 season, having sealed back-to-back promotions under the ownership of Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney.
While they will look to continue their extraordinary rise through the divisions, this campaign will be the biggest test yet for Phil Parkinson’s side. They face a tricky start, with meetings with last year’s third and fourth placed teams - Bolton and Peterborough - coming before a derby clash with Shrewsbury in their opening five games of the season.

They will meet relegated Championship side Birmingham City on September 14 before facing them again in January, while back-to-back clashes with Huddersfield Town and Rotherham are scheduled for October.
The Red Dragons will host Blackpool on Boxing Day before a visit to Barnsley on New Year’s Day.
Looking ahead to the run-in at the end of the season, Wrexham face Bristol Rovers, Blackpool and Charlton before a final day clash with Lincoln City.

Ryan Reynolds dismisses USA fixture
Wrexham co-owner Ryan Reynolds has refuted suggestions that the club could potentially face Birmingham City in the USA next season.
Earlier this week, it was reported that Birmingham had enquired about the possibility of relocating their League One match against Wrexham to the US next season – a move that would have been groundbreaking for English football. However, the EFL quickly dismissed the idea.
Now, the Hollywood actor has responded to a concerned fan, who questioned whether he and Rob McElhenney were moving away from the 'guiding principles' they established when they bought the club in 2020.
Reynolds wiftly responded to the claims and promptly dismissed the story, stating: "I agree. And that's why there have been no talks"

Pre-season fixtures
For the second year in a row, the Red Dragons will be heading across the Atlantic for a pre-season tour.
Last summer, the mens team faced Manchester United and Chelsea in the United States and will come face-to-face with the Blues again in California next month. That fixture will come between a clash with Bournemouth in Santa Barbara and a visit to Vancouver to play the Whitecaps.
The 'Wrex Coast Tour', as it has been billed, will however be preceded by a trip to Stoke-on-Trent to face Northern Premier League Division One West side Hanley Town
- Hanley Town vs Wrexham AFC: Afford Rent A Car Stadium, Stoke-on-Trent - Saturday, July 13, 1pm
- Wrexham AFC vs AFC Bournemouth: Harder Stadium, Santa Barbara - Saturday, July 20, 4pm (PT)
- Wrexham AFC vs Chelsea FC: Levi's Stadium, Santa Clara - Wednesday, July 24, 7.30pm (PT)
- Vancouver Whitecaps vs Wrexham AFC: BC Place, Vancouver - Saturday, July 27, 4.30pm (PT)
