Wrexham fans scramble for U.S. tour tickets as demand explodes

Wrexham return to the United States this summer for a series of preseason friendlies and demand for tickets has skyrocketed since the tour dates were confirmed last week.

The Red Dragons will travel to the US where they will face Leeds United, Sunderland and Liverpool as part of the Summer Soccer Series, promoted by TEG Sport.

The mini-tour starts in Florida, where Wrexham will face Leeds at the Raymond James Stadium in Tampa on Saturday July 25. The series continues in New York where Phil Parkinson will meet Liverpool at Yankee Stadium on Wednesday July 29 before travelling to Philadelphia’s Subaru Park to take on Sunderland on Sunday 2 August.

Surge for US Tour tickets

Pre-sale tickets for the US tour were made available for club members and season-ticket holders from 11 a.m. ET yesterday and will go on sale to the general public on Wednesday, March 12. Prices start at $102 and can be bought through SeatGeek, StubHub, Vivid Seats and Ticketmaster.

During the 24 hours since pre-sale tickets went on sale, demand has surprised organizers. Over 11,000 people were in the online queue just minutes after the pre-sale began.

Wrexham’s previous visits to the US

This will be Wrexham’s third trip to the United States - the team visited staged their 2023 preseason in North America with games against Chelsea, LA Galaxy and Manchester United and returned the following year, facing Bournemouth, Chelsea and Vancouver Whitecaps.

“We have had terrific support on our last trips to the States, and we can’t wait to see our supporters out there again, while also playing against three quality opponents in matches that will play a key part in us getting ready for the 2026/27 campaign,” manager Phil Parkinson said.
