Feb. 9, 2026, Redmond, Redmond joined the region in celebration after the Seattle Seahawks claimed the Super Bowl LX title, beating the New England Patriots 29 to 13, and the win spilled into local bars, parks, and neighborhood feeds as fans cheered a team many here consider their own.
Kenneth Walker the third paced Seattle’s ground game and was named the game MVP, while the Seahawks’ defense forced turnovers and controlled the tone throughout the night, a performance that had supporters in Redmond erupting at the final whistle.
Played at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara on Feb. 8, Super Bowl LX saw Seattle take control early and never really surrender it, with the Seahawks turning timely defensive takeaways into points and grinding out the clock with a steady run game.
Kenneth Walker III, who was named the game MVP, powered Seattle’s offense with decisive carries and key short-yardage conversions that kept drives alive.
New England struggled to find a consistent answer, and costly turnovers and stalled drives left the Patriots unable to cut into Seattle’s lead.
The Seahawks set up a Defensive Masterclass as they won each of the Quarters 3-0, 6-0, 3-0, and 17-13, respectively.
Locally, restaurants and bars in the city filled with supporters wearing blue and green, and the mood on Redmond Way was one of relief and pride after a season that put the Seahawks atop the NFC.
A neighborhood Instagram post summed it up in a single line: “We are the city of Redmond, and we love our Seahawks,” and that sentiment was visible across social channels and in storefront windows.
Redmond is part of the Seahawks Bar Alliance program, which means official watch locations in town hosted large crowds for the game and gave local fans a place to gather without making the trip into Seattle.
Business owners said gameday crowds gave an early boost to neighborhood commerce as people stayed for food and drinks after the game.
City parks showed their support in a big way, with a new “GO HAWKS” installation drawing families and groups who posed for photos under the oversized letters.
The public artwork, placed in a central park, became a makeshift rallying point for fans and a place where neighbors met to swap high fives and plan pickup games in the weeks.
For many in Redmond, the win was personal. The Eastside sits close to team facilities in Renton, and generations of local fans travel regularly to Lumen Field to watch home games
That proximity has helped deepen ties between the franchise and communities like Redmond, where watch parties and team-themed events are part of local culture.
Youth coaches said they already expect a bump in registrations this spring as kids who watched the Super Bowl with wide eyes decide they want to play.
The economic lift on a night like this is small but tangible, local restaurateurs said. Bars that joined the Seahawks Bar Alliance reported larger-than-usual crowds, and some restaurants ran late-night specials to keep the energy going as fans flowed into the streets.
A local Redmond Restaurant also said they were closing so staff could enjoy the Super Bowl, which was the Seahawks’ second Super Bowl triumph.
Storefronts and offices that were decorated in blue and green for the playoffs left their banners up for the celebration, a visual reminder of how sports moments ripple through everyday community life.
Many longtime supporters recalled the franchise’s first Lombardi Trophy in 2014 and spoke about how the sport connects people across generations.
For others, the night underscored the regional identity that ties the Eastside to Seattle, a connection that shows up in school spirit, local radio calls, and neighborhood conversations at coffee shops.
