Wrap of the Day McDonald’s: UK & Ireland Schedule
If you’ve ever swung by McDonald’s on a specific weekday hoping for a certain wrap, you know the drill — the Wrap of the Day rotates daily, and what was on offer last Tuesday might not be there this Thursday. For fans of the Big Flavour Wraps, that daily flip is either a perk or a frustration, depending on whether your favorite landed on your schedule. This guide lays out the exact weekly rotation across Ireland and UK, the €8 bundle deal, and how the schedule shifted in February 2026 when McDonald’s added a new everyday wrap to the lineup.

What is McDonald’s wrap of the day today?
The Wrap of the Day is a daily promotion that serves a different Big Flavour Wrap at a discounted price each weekday across McDonald’s UK and Ireland locations. The exact flavor changes daily, and the promotion rotates through five core wrap options on a set weekly schedule. The easiest way to check today’s offering is the McDonald’s UK Official site or the mobile app — both list the current Wrap of the Day front and center. Tracker sites like McdsWrapOfTheDay.co.uk also keep running tables updated as schedules shift.
The current rotation as of 2026 reflects the February menu overhaul: the Sweet Chilli Chicken One takes Tuesday, Friday, and Sunday slots in the UK. The BBQ and Bacon Chicken One anchors Monday and Thursday. The Tikka Chicken Wrap — added 3 February 2026 as an everyday menu item — now holds Wednesday and Saturday.
How to find today’s wrap
Three reliable routes: check the McDonald’s app under the current deals section, visit the UK Big Flavour Wraps page, or look for in-store signage at the counter. The app also sends notifications when you’re near a participating location, which helps if you’re routing through an unfamiliar area on a weekday lunch run. Drive-thru customers get the same access to Wrap of the Day pricing as dine-in orders.
Current flavor examples
Here is how the most frequent Wrap of the Day — the Sweet Chilli Chicken One — maps across the week: Tuesday, Friday, and Sunday in the UK. The same flavor appears on Monday and Wednesday in Ireland. On Monday and Thursday, McDonald’s offers a double-choice day with both the BBQ and Bacon Chicken One and the Spicy Veggie One available as Wrap of the Day.
The Ireland and UK schedules run nearly identical for core flavors, but minor day-to-day variations exist. Always check the region-specific McDonald’s page — ie versus uk — rather than assuming a UK schedule applies verbatim in Ireland.
What is the wrap of the day?
Put simply, the Wrap of the Day is McDonald’s daily discounted offer on one of its Big Flavour Wraps. Instead of paying the regular price of £3.79 to £5.29, customers grab the featured wrap for £1.99. The deal has run daily since mid-2025, when McDonald’s expanded the promotion from selective days to a weekday rotation — Wednesday was added alongside the existing slots when the Fajita Chicken One replaced the Katsu Chicken One on 30 July 2025.
Big Flavour Wraps overview
Big Flavour Wraps is McDonald’s umbrella brand for its line of soft, toasted tortilla wraps filled with chicken breast and various sauces. The range includes five named options: Sweet Chilli Chicken One, BBQ and Bacon Chicken One, Tikka Chicken Wrap, Spicy Veggie One, and Fajita Chicken One. McDonald’s markets these as “all the flavour, none of the mess” — a positioning aimed at commuters and busy workers looking for a handheld meal that travels well.
Crispy vs Grilled
Every chicken Big Flavour Wrap is available in crispy or grilled format — the choice is yours at the counter or in the app. The crispy option uses Chicken Select-style breaded fillets; the grilled option uses a marinated, flame-grilled chicken breast. Nutrition and taste preferences differ, but pricing stays identical whether you go crispy or grilled. The Spicy Veggie One is the plant-based exception — it uses Veggie Dippers instead of chicken and is available exclusively crispy or as a cold wrap.
The implication: McDonald’s built flexibility into the core product, which means the Wrap of the Day deal applies equally regardless of whether you prefer the crunch of crispy or the char of grilled.
What is McDonald’s wrap of the day in Ireland?
Ireland runs the same Wrap of the Day rotation as the UK, with the Sweet Chilli Chicken One appearing on Tuesday, Friday, and Sunday — mirroring the UK schedule exactly. The February 2026 menu overhaul that brought the Tikka Chicken Wrap simultaneously to both markets reinforced the alignment: official sites for McDonald’s Ireland and McDonald’s UK now list near-identical Big Flavour Wrap schedules.
Ireland schedule
Based on confirmed sources, the current Ireland schedule runs as follows: Monday brings BBQ and Bacon Chicken One (with Spicy Veggie One as a double-choice option), Tuesday is Sweet Chilli Chicken One, Wednesday is Tikka Chicken Wrap (added 3 February 2026), Thursday is BBQ and Bacon Chicken One, Friday is Sweet Chilli Chicken One, Saturday is Tikka Chicken Wrap, and Sunday is Sweet Chilli Chicken One. This mirrors the UK except where regional day-specific variations apply. The McDonald’s Ireland Official site provides the authoritative current listing.
Official site details
McDonald’s Ireland hosts a dedicated Big Flavour Wraps page that lists current options and which wraps are featured on which days. One critical caveat: the Wrap of the Day discount is not available on delivery orders in Ireland. That restriction does not apply in the UK, making the deal more accessible there for McDelivery customers.
What is the Wednesday wrap of the day in Ireland?
Wednesday’s Wrap of the Day in Ireland is the Tikka Chicken Wrap — the newest addition to the Big Flavour lineup, launched across UK and Ireland on 3 February 2026. The Tikka Chicken Wrap took over Wednesday slots that previously rotated through Katsu Chicken One (until 29 July 2025) and then Fajita Chicken One (post-July 2025). It is priced at £3.79 standalone and £2.49 as the Wrap of the Day on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
Wednesday flavor profile
The Tikka Chicken Wrap fills a toasted tortilla with tikka mayo, mango and lime chutney, onions, lettuce, and cucumber — a flavor profile that stands apart from the sweet chilli and BBQ options in the rotation. The wrap contains crispy or grilled chicken breast, same as the other chicken Big Flavour Wraps. Ingredients are confirmed by Netmums.
Other midweek days
The midweek picture beyond Wednesday: Monday brings BBQ and Bacon Chicken One (plus Spicy Veggie One as a double choice), and Thursday repeats BBQ and Bacon Chicken One. Wednesday and Saturday share the Tikka Chicken Wrap as their daily special under the post-February 2026 schedule.
What is the McDonald’s €8 deal?
The €8 deal is McDonald’s Ireland bundle offer, pairing a main item with sides and a drink at a set price. While the exact contents of the bundle vary by promotion cycle, the Wrap of the Day pairs naturally with the €8 deal when wraps are included in the bundle rotation. This gives Ireland customers a way to combine the £1.99 wrap discount with a broader value meal — the key is checking whether the current week’s €8 bundle features a Big Flavour Wrap as its main component. The deal is available in-restaurant and through the McDonald’s app, though the Wrap of the Day discount itself does not apply to delivery orders.
Deal contents
The €8 bundle typically includes a main (wrap or burger), a side (fries or similar), and a drink. When a Big Flavour Wrap is featured as the main, the Wrap of the Day price does not stack — you get either the bundle price or the Wrap of the Day price, whichever applies. Check the current week’s offer in the app to confirm wrap inclusion.
Wrap inclusion
Wraps enter the €8 bundle rotation on a promotional basis — not every week features a wrap as the main. When they do, the bundle represents a stronger value for hungry customers who want a full meal. The Wrap of the Day at £1.99 remains the better option for those grabbing a wrap alone without sides or a drink.
The pricing table below shows current Wrap of the Day values against regular pricing across all five core wraps.
| Wrap Name | Wrap of the Day Price | Regular Price | Medium Meal Upgrade |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sweet Chilli Chicken One | £1.99 | £3.79 | +£1.20–£1.90 |
| BBQ and Bacon Chicken One | £1.99 | £3.79–£4.49 | +£1.20–£1.90 |
| Tikka Chicken Wrap | £2.49 | £3.79 | +£1.20–£1.90 |
| Spicy Veggie One | £1.99 | £3.79 | +£1.20–£1.90 |
| Fajita Chicken One | £1.99 | £3.99–£4.49 | +£1.20–£1.90 |
The pattern is clear: McDonald’s uses the Wrap of the Day schedule as a vehicle for launching new wraps and retiring old ones. When a new everyday wrap enters the permanent menu, it immediately claims a regular Wrap of the Day slot — the Tikka Chicken Wrap is the latest example.

What People Are Saying
Get all of the flavour, none of the mess with our delicious crispy chicken wraps.
— McDonald’s UK (official brand messaging)
Wrap of the Day every Wednesday & Saturday Sweet Chilli.
— McdsWrapOfTheDay.co.uk (independent tracker)
For UK value-seekers, the Wrap of the Day at £1.99 is a straightforward win over the £3.79 regular price — but only on specific days. Ireland customers face the same rotation with one catch: the discount vanishes on delivery orders, making in-store or drive-thru the only route to the deal.
McDonald’s placed the Tikka Chicken Wrap directly into the Wrap of the Day rotation on Wednesdays and Saturdays from launch day — a move that fast-tracks customer awareness of the new flavor by tying it to a discount consumers already track.

Frequently asked questions
How do I order the Wrap of the Day?
Order at the counter, through the drive-thru, or via the McDonald’s app. The Wrap of the Day discount applies automatically — you do not need a coupon. Simply ask for the featured wrap of the day, or select it in the app under current deals.

The Sweet Chilli Chicken One features crispy or grilled chicken breast with a sweet chilli sauce, cool mayo, lettuce, and cucumber wrapped in a soft toasted tortilla. Full ingredient and nutrition details are listed on each product page at McDonald’s UK.
Does Wrap of the Day change weekly?
No — the rotation is daily, not weekly. Each weekday has a set Wrap of the Day flavor that repeats on a weekly cycle. The schedule has been stable since the February 2026 Tikka launch, though McDonald’s can change the rotation with advance notice.
Is there a Wrap of the Day app notification?
The McDonald’s app displays current deals including the Wrap of the Day when you open it. It does not send a dedicated daily notification for Wrap of the Day specifically, but the deal appears under “current offers” and updates automatically when the day changes.
Can I get Wrap of the Day via drive-thru?
Yes. The Wrap of the Day is available at drive-thru locations in both the UK and Ireland. In Ireland, note that the Wrap of the Day discount does not apply to McDelivery orders — drive-thru falls under in-restaurant ordering for discount purposes.
What other deals pair with Wrap of the Day?
In Ireland, the €8 bundle deal occasionally features a Big Flavour Wrap as its main. When that happens, the bundle and Wrap of the Day are separate deals — you cannot stack both. Medium meal upgrades for wraps add £1.20–£1.90 to the base Wrap of the Day price.
