When is the new series of Welcome to Wrexham?

Last Updated : 12-Mar-2026 by Footymad

Series 5 of Welcome to Wrexham is expected to premiere in May 2026 on Disney+

The upcoming series will document the club's historic 2025/26 campaign, which marks their return to the EFL Championship for the first time since 1982. This follows their incredible feat of securing three consecutive promotions.

The Championship "Reality Check"

While the previous seasons focused on dominant runs and fairy-tale wins, Series 5 will likely highlight the immense jump in quality. Wrexham has faced established former Premier League sides like Hull City, Portsmouth, and Sheffield United. Expect the narrative to focus on the "reality check" of being a smaller fish in a much larger pond, as the team battles for stability in one of the world's toughest leagues.

On-Pitch Highlights and Squad Evolution

A New Goalscoring Hero: While Paul Mullin remains a central figure, expect a focus on new signings such as striker Kieffer Moore, who has been a top scorer for the club this season.

Cup Drama: The series will cover their 2025/26 FA Cup run, which saw them reach the Fifth Round before a hard-fought exit against Chelsea.

Tactical Shifts: As the club grows, the cameras will likely capture Phil Parkinson’s efforts to adapt his squad to a more technical style of play required for the Championship.
