Он стоит на реке Дуглас, в 7,9 милях к юго-западу от Болтона, в 10 милях к северу от Уоррингтона и в 16 милях к западу от северо-запада от Манчестера. Уиган - крупнейшее поселение в столичном районе Уиган и является его административным центром. В городе Уиган в 2011 году насчитывалось 97 000 человек, в то время как в более широком районе проживает 318 100 человек. Исторически в графстве Ланкашир Уиган во время классической древности находился на территории Бригантов, древнего кельтского племени, которое управляло большей частью северной Англии. Бриганты были покорены римским завоеванием Британии в I веке, и утверждается, что римское поселение Кокций было создано там, где находится Уиган. Уиган, как полагают, был включен как город в 1246 году после вопроса о чарте короля Англии Генриха III. В конце Средневековья это был один из четырех районов в Ланкашире, обладающих королевскими уставами; другие - Ланкастер, Ливерпуль и Престон.
