PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- The Navy and Marine Corps' 250th birthday celebration in Philadelphia wraps up with a ship sendoff Thursday.

Navy and Coast Guard vessels that arrived last week will be setting sail to return to their home ports.

The ships have been docked at ports along the Delaware River in the Philadelphia Navy Yard, Penn's Landing, Gloucester City and Camden.

Everyone is invited to watch as the ships depart at their scheduled times from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Thursday.

Colorful fireworks lit up the night sky on Wednesday night.

The "Homecoming 250" fireworks show finally blasted off after a weather delay earlier in the week.
