The Fall 2026 Edition of Crossville Lifestyle Is Here

The newest edition of Crossville Lifestyle has arrived, celebrating the people, stories and traditions that make Cumberland County such a special place to call home.

The Fall 2026 edition of Crossville Lifestyle is officially available, and this issue is filled with stories that capture the heart of the community, from local traditions and remarkable people to fashion, history, service and the places that continue to shape Cumberland County.

Inside, readers will find “Once Upon a Crown,” a look back at the Fairest of the Fair through the decades. The feature celebrates the women who have worn the crown and the friendships, memories and experiences that have remained long after their pageant days ended.

The issue also takes readers inside the story of the Cumberland County Playhouse with “The Theater That Shouldn’t Be Here,” explores the meaning behind the Fairfield Glade Veterans and First Responders Memorial, and hits the trails for “The Quiet Between the Miles,” a feature on the Hiking Marathon in Cumberland County.

Readers will also meet people making an impact throughout the community. Dr. Alissa Hudson of Middle Tennessee Eye Center shares her story in “Called to Care,” while Sabrina Brazle and Provision Realty are featured in “Building More Than a Brokerage.” The issue also celebrates 35 years of the Miss Senior Tennessee Pageant in “Her Time to Shine.”

And there is plenty of fall inspiration throughout the pages. Fashion & Lifestyle Editor Audrey Wellman returns with the Fall & Winter Trend Edit, along with a seasonal Gift Guide filled with finds for the months ahead.

This edition was brought together by a team of local writers, photographers and contributors, including Publisher and Editor-in-Chief Melissa Ellis, Lead Photographer Franki Bridges Lane, Fashion & Lifestyle Editor Audrey Wellman, Amanda McGinnis, Peyton McGinnis, Matt Clyde, Lacie Proffitt and the Upper Cumberland Lifestyle team.

We also had the opportunity to celebrate the launch of the Fall 2026 edition with friends, contributors, advertisers and members of the community at Southern Mules Venue in Crossville. It was the perfect setting to gather together and celebrate another edition dedicated to sharing the people and stories of Cumberland County.

A special thank you to Southern Mules Venue for hosting us and helping make the evening such a wonderful celebration. We’re also incredibly grateful to everyone who joined us and to the local businesses, contributors and community members whose support makes Crossville Lifestyle possible.

The Fall 2026 edition of Crossville Lifestyle is available now. Pick up a copy, settle in and discover the people and stories that make Crossville and Cumberland County worth celebrating.
