- The £500,000 event, funded by co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, included pool parties and VIP treatment at the Bellagio Hotel and Hakkasan Nightclub.
- This marks the third consecutive year the team has celebrated a promotion with a Vegas trip, a tradition established under the club’s Hollywood ownership.
- Wrexham’s rise from non-league football to the Championship in just four seasons is unprecedented in English football history.
