Thousands of fans lined the streets of Wrexham to celebrate their return to the Football League.

From Christchurch in New Zealand, to Virginia in the USA - fans travelled from far and wide for the club's open-top bus victory parade.

Amongst the fans who made long journeys were Hollywood owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney.

The parade comes 10 days after Wrexham's 3-1 win against Boreham Wood, securing the National League title.
