nighter
Late working session
A nighter is an event or activity that lasts through the night or a significant portion of it.
The word almost always appears with a modifier: an all-nighter is a session—typically of work or study—that continues until morning.
A one-nighter or overnighter is a trip or engagement lasting a single night.
The word rarely stands alone.
