Wrexham AFC's remarkable rise under Hollywood ownership is now just as visible off the pitch as it is on it.

Fresh comparison footage has highlighted just how dramatically the Racecourse Ground has changed over the past three years.

Wrexham's home has been on a huge journey since 2023

A new video from Mister Drone UK comparing the Racecourse Ground in January 2023 with July 2026 has showcased the scale of Wrexham's stadium transformation, with the Kop Stand redevelopment dominating the changes.

The side-by-side comparison illustrates how the ground has evolved over the past three-and-a-half years, with construction well advanced on the club's new Kop Stand as Wrexham edge closer to restoring the Racecourse Ground to a fully four-sided stadium.

Once complete, the redevelopment will increase the stadium's capacity to more than 18,000 spectators while also delivering modern facilities and infrastructure capable of supporting the club's continued rise through the English football pyramid.

The footage also highlights the wider improvements made around the stadium, including the installation of a new state-of-the-art pitch and the arrival of pre-fabricated concrete sections that now form a key part of the new stand's structure.

The comparison follows previous time-lapse updates documenting the build, but offers perhaps the clearest visual reminder yet of how dramatically the Racecourse Ground has changed in such a short period.

FGG says: The transformation has been remarkable to watch

Comparing the Racecourse Ground in 2023 with today underlines just how much progress has been made, with the stadium now looking every bit a club preparing for the demands of higher-level football.

The Kop Stand remains the centrepiece of that transformation, and with construction continuing at pace, Wrexham supporters have plenty more to look forward to over the coming months as one of the game's most iconic stadiums enters a new era.

The speed of the redevelopment mirrors the club's rise on the pitch, with Wrexham continuing to modernise their home while preserving the character that has made the Racecourse Ground so unique.
