Overnight parking refers to leaving a vehicle parked during nighttime hours, typically from late evening through early morning.

Hotels and apartment complexes often designate spaces specifically for overnight parking.

The term also describes parking that extends across consecutive days: The airport charges extra for overnight parking.
