About Us

Since 1996 Up & Coming Weekly has been Fayetteville, Cumberland County and Fort Bragg's leading and trusted free weekly community newspaper. The tabloid style weekly provides a variety of local news, views, art and entertainment venues for the local community while providing area businesses and organizations an effective, dependable, professional and inexpensive media marketing, advertising and branding vehicle.

Up & Coming Weekly's mission and main focus is on accentuating and illuminating the ''quality of life'' enjoyed here in the Fayetteville/Cumberland County area. As a trusted weekly alternative, U&CW's goal is not to be a center of controversy or negativity, but rather to bring forth a publicly accessible and open forum for reporting news, events and important local issues that affect the community and the lives of its residents. This focus keeps the content fresh, relevant and exciting. It also keeps the readers coming back to it week after week.
