Wrexham has one Betfred: 22–23 Queen Street in the town centre, open 08:00 to 22:00 Monday to Saturday and 09:00 to 21:30 on a Sunday. Fourteen hours a day for six days is the longest week of any single-shop town on this site, and only the Ladbrokes on High Street matches it. The licensing register copy we hold has no Wrexham entry at all, though the shop publishes full weekly times.

Betfred, Queen Street22–23 Queen Street, Wrexham LL11 1AL
The Queen Street shop runs 08:00 to 22:00 Monday to Saturday and 09:00 to 21:30 on a Sunday. It is in the middle of the town, a few minutes from Wrexham General station and the Racecourse Ground, with a Ladbrokes on High Street keeping the same hours and a William Hill on Lord Street open only 10:00 to 19:00. Distances are straight-line estimates from Queen Street. Street View opens at the shop’s position, so you may need to turn the view to face the shopfront.

The full weekly pattern for the shop in one table. Today’s column is highlighted.
With one shop the table is short: a fourteen-hour day from 08:00 to 22:00 Monday to Saturday, and twelve and a half hours on a Sunday from 09:00 to 21:30.
| Shop | Mon – Fri | Saturday | Sunday | Find the shop |

Earliest and latest Betfred shops in Wrexham
Full weekly times are published for the shop, so this section covers every day of its week.
Open earliest
08:30 Monday to Friday, 08:00 on a Saturday and 09:00 on a Sunday.
Open latest
22:00 Monday to Saturday, and 21:30 on a Sunday.
Two shops share the late shift: the Ladbrokes at 19 High Street keeps 08:00 to 22:00 as well, so Wrexham has two bookmakers open fourteen hours a day. After them the drop is steep: the Lord Street Ladbrokes closes at 21:30, the Chester Road Coral at 20:00, and the Lord Street William Hill at 19:00.
Betfred Wrexham Sunday opening times
Sunday on Queen Street runs 09:00 to 21:30.
| Shop | Opens | Closes | Find the shop |
|---|---|---|---|
| Queen Street22–23 Queen Street, LL11 1AL | 09:00 | 21:30 |
Twelve and a half hours on a Sunday covers the racing, the afternoon football and the evening kick-offs. The shop opens an hour later than on a weekday and closes half an hour earlier.
Betfred Wrexham bank holiday opening times
Wales keeps the same bank holidays as England, and betting shops can trade on every one of them bar Christmas Day. Premises licences issued under the Gambling Act 2005 carry that single closure as a condition.
St David’s Day on 1 March is a national day rather than a bank holiday, so the Queen Street shop keeps its normal times. On the actual bank holidays it usually runs either its normal hours for that day of the week or a slightly shorter day. Betfred’s own shop notices have stated that all its shops close at 20:00 on bank holiday Mondays, which would take two hours off Queen Street. Dates in the tables below update automatically.
Easter opening times
Betting shops have been allowed to open on Good Friday since the Gambling Act 2005 came into force, and there is no Easter Sunday restriction in Wales. Across the Easter weekend, expect the Wrexham shop to follow its usual pattern for that day.
| Day | Falls on | Next date | What to expect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Good Friday | Friday before Easter Sunday | — | Normal weekday times |
| Easter Saturday | Saturday before Easter Sunday | — | Normal Saturday times |
| Easter Sunday | First Sunday after the first full moon on or after 21 March | — | Normal Sunday times |
| Easter Monday | Day after Easter Sunday | — | Weekday opening, possible 20:00 close |
May and August bank holidays
The early May, spring and summer bank holidays all fall on a Monday. Check the window card or the Betfred shop finder the week before, and the shop would lose an hour if it applies.
| Bank holiday | Falls on | Next date | What to expect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Early May bank holiday | First Monday in May | — | Weekday opening, possible 20:00 close |
| Spring bank holiday | Last Monday in May | — | Weekday opening, possible 20:00 close |
| Summer bank holiday | Last Monday in August | — | Weekday opening, possible 20:00 close |
Christmas and New Year opening times
The festive fortnight is the only stretch of the year when Wrexham times move far from the weekly pattern. Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve normally finish early, Boxing Day — the biggest racing day of the winter — runs close to normal, and New Year’s Day starts later.
| Day | Date | Next date | Usual pattern in Wrexham |
|---|---|---|---|
| Christmas Eve | 24 December | — | Normal opening, early close around 18:00 |
| Christmas Day | 25 December | — | Closed all day, both shops |
| Boxing Day | 26 December | — | Normal opening, close around 20:00 |
| Substitute bank holiday | When 25 or 26 December falls on a weekend | — | Normal times for that day |
| New Year’s Eve | 31 December | — | Normal opening, early close around 18:00 |
| New Year’s Day | 1 January | — | Later start around 10:00, close around 20:00 |
Each Wrexham branch sets its own festive times and usually posts them in the window from mid-December. The shop sits in the town centre, so its festive hours tend to track the trading pattern of the shops around the Market Place. The live countdowns on this page follow the standard weekly times and the Christmas Day closure only, so check the window card before travelling on 24, 26 or 31 December or 1 January.
How the live opening times work
Everything live on this page reads the clock in Wrexham (UK time), not the clock on your device, and compares it against each shop’s published times. That keeps the status right even if you are checking from abroad.
The panel at the top
The top panel covers the Queen Street branch, the only Betfred in Wrexham. It tells you whether it is open right now and how long until it closes.
The shop rows
Open now means the shop is inside its published times and the countdown shows how long is left. Closed shows when it opens next. Counters stop taking cash bets a few minutes before closing so staff can settle slips, so if you are collecting winnings, aim to arrive ten minutes before the time shown.
Map, directions and Street View
Each row has three buttons. Map drops a pin on the shop, Directions plans a route from wherever you are, and Street View shows the street around the shop so you can spot the frontage before you set off. Tap “Use my current location” and the page measures your distance to the shop, and the directions button plans a route from wherever you are.
Betfred near Wrexham
Current listings carry this shop; the register copy we hold does not.
Most towns on this site show the opposite problem: a licensing register that lists an address current listings have dropped. Wrexham is the reverse. The register copy we hold has no Wrexham row at all, while current listings carry 22–23 Queen Street with full published weekly times, which is what this page uses. Betfred’s Welsh estate is licensed borough by borough, and Wrexham County Borough Council is the authority here.
The Queen Street shop is licensed by Wrexham County Borough Council. Chester is about twelve miles north-east across the border in England, Oswestry fifteen miles south, and Rhyl and Bangor further along the North Wales coast; each has its own Betfred under its own post town.
Other bookmakers in Wrexham
Betfred is one of several bookmakers in Wrexham.
Wrexham is not covered by the national directory we use for rival shops, so we have not listed other bookmakers here yet. Every bookmaker in the town is closed on Christmas Day by law.
We have not yet confirmed which other bookmakers trade in Wrexham or their hours, so none are listed with live status on this page.

Frequently asked questions
- How many Betfred shops are there in Wrexham?
- One: 22–23 Queen Street in the town centre, licensed by Wrexham County Borough Council. It is the only Betfred carrying a Wrexham address in current listings.
- What time does Betfred open in Wrexham?
- 08:00 Monday to Saturday and 09:00 on a Sunday.
- What time does Betfred close in Wrexham?
- 22:00 Monday to Saturday and 21:30 on a Sunday. That is a fourteen-hour day six days a week, longer than any other single-shop town on this site.
- Is the Wrexham Betfred open on a Sunday?
- Yes, 09:00 to 21:30 — twelve and a half hours, so it covers the racing, the afternoon football and the evening kick-offs.
- Is Betfred open on Christmas Day?
- No. Every betting shop in Wales, England and Scotland is closed on Christmas Day. It is a condition attached to premises licences under the Gambling Act 2005, not a company decision.
- Are Betfred shops in Wrexham open on bank holidays?
- Yes. Wales keeps the same bank holidays as England, so Good Friday, Easter Monday and the May and August bank holidays are all trading days, usually on normal or slightly shortened hours. St David’s Day on 1 March is a national day rather than a bank holiday, so the shop keeps its normal times.
- Is there a later-closing bookmaker in Wrexham?
- No, but one matches it. The Ladbrokes at 19 High Street keeps 08:00 to 22:00, the same as Betfred. The other Ladbrokes, on Lord Street, closes at 21:30, the Coral on Chester Road at 20:00, and the William Hill on Lord Street runs only 10:00 to 19:00.
- Which Betfred is nearest Wrexham General station and the Racecourse Ground?
- There is only one, at 22–23 Queen Street, a few minutes’ walk from both. It opens at 08:00 and closes at 22:00 Monday to Saturday, so it covers an evening match at the Racecourse.
- Is the Wrexham shop in the licensing register?
- Not in the copy we hold, which has no Wrexham row at all, though the shop appears in current listings with full weekly times. That is the opposite of the usual gap, where the register carries an address that listings have dropped.
- How do I find the nearest Betfred to me in Wrexham?
- Tap “Use my current location”. The list re-orders from your position and the directions button routes you to the Queen Street shop.
