Make Wrexham Your Christmas Shopping Destination!

There’s something for everyone around your local county this festive season!

No need to go further afield for your Christmas shopping this year, Wrexham has everything you need!

Toys and Stationery

Let’s start with the kids. There are two large, quality toy shops in Wrexham: The Entertainer on Eagle’s Meadow and Smyths on Island Green. The Works at 25 Regent Street, WH Smiths on Hope Street and The Range on Plas Coch can satisfy all your stationery needs.

Wrexham can also look after the gamers out there this Christmas. If board games are your thing, 4th Planet Games on Bank Street is the ideal place to go. Pop into Geckos on Henblas Street for all things Pokémon.

House of Retro in Tŷ Pawb, Cex on Hope Street and Game (inside Sports Direct on Henblas Street) can help with any new or used PC, console or hand-held games.
