We are live from downtown Ottawa where Long-Ma is awakening.

The giant machines — Long Ma, the horse-dragon, and Kumo, the spider — are astonishing, a combined 80 tonnes of clanking, articulated steel, escaping steam and window-rattling roars.

Kumo can stretch 20 meters long and 13 metres high and takes more than a dozen people to operate.

La Machine is a French street theatre company founded by François Delarozière, an engineer by training. Guy Laflamme, executive director of Ottawa 2017, described Delarozière as one of the most brilliant minds in France’s artistic world. Laflamme and the city have been planning La Machine’s four-day performance for more than two years.

La Machine will continues Friday, Saturday and Sunday. For more information on parking, road closures and the event schedule please click here or visit www.ottawa.ca.

I'd estimate there are thousands of people here and I'm not sure if they took the day off work, or pic.twitter.com/XLHLXfxAi9

Hello I am at city hall for the #awakening of Long-Ma, a giant mechanical dragon-horse. There are, um, lots of people here. pic.twitter.com/ITWN1d7ogd
