Watch Welcome to Wrexham Season 3: Synopsis
The award-winning docuseries returns, charting the changing fortunes of Wrexham A.F.C. after its buyout by Hollywood superstars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney. After a challenging 2022-2023 season, we saw the club absolutely elated after its triumphant promotion back into English Football League (EFL), and expect the pressure to be exponentially higher this time around. Read our guide below for how to watch Welcome to Wrexham Season 3 online and stream every episode.
When Reynolds (Daredevil) and McElhenney (It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia) announced their intention to take over Welsh club Wrexham A.F.C., it sounded like an elaborate prank. Yet the duo were inspired to bring glory back to the “Red Dragons,” who since 2008 had languished outside of the EFL in the fifth-tier National League, and boost the morale of a down-on-its-luck community.
Exploring the ripple effect of the team’s success and failures as its A-list owners scramble after promotion, Welcome to Wrexham focuses in on the ordinary people who make up the football-loving enclave. That includes lifelong Wrexham supporter and pub landlord Wayne Jones, autistic fan Millie Jones, disability liaison officer Kerry Evans, and team forward Paul Mullin: documenting their triumphs and struggles as the series cuts between talking heads and thrilling match footage.
Despite failing to qualify for the playoff finals in 2022, Season 2 demonstrated that Reynold’s and McElhenney’s steady investment finally paid off. Wrexham’s 3-1 win over Boreham Wood saw the team thrust back into the hallowed League Two of the EFL. It was a moment of complete euphoria, and an incredible feat for Wrexham after 15 years on the outside.
And the stakes are higher than ever this season as the club embarks on some of its biggest games, clawing their way up the League Two ladder and kicking off in a series of intense, adrenaline-fuelled matches. Plus, word has it the Wrexham massive are guaranteed at least one history-making moment.
