Fireworks go off at MetLife Stadium as the Seahawks win the Super Bowl.

As fireworks sounded in neighborhoods and communities around the region, Mayor Ed Murray announced a parade for Wednesday.

With the Seahawks building an insurmountable lead over the Denver Broncos, celebrations began in Seattle and around the region even before Super Bowl XLVIII ended in New Jersey. In Aberdeen, on the Coast, fans were setting off fireworks midway through the second half of the blowout contest.

After the game, crowds poured into the streets in Belltown, Capitol Hill and Pioneer Square.
