These are scheduled departure times from the city centre. If you're catching the bus further along its route, it'll pass through later. Schedules change, so check live times for your stop at StopBoard.

The N1 is Liverpool's only proper night bus. It runs Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights (so early hours of Friday, Saturday and Sunday morning), hourly from about 12:25am until 4:30am. It goes from Liverpool ONE through the city centre and across to Birkenhead through the tunnel. Tickets cost £2 and weekly or monthly passes aren't accepted. See the full N1 timetable on the Merseytravel website.

After the N1, the 86A has the widest late-night window, with early morning services starting at 4:20am on weekdays. The 10A to St Helens runs past midnight every night, and the 79 and 75 to Halewood both depart Liverpool ONE just after midnight on weekdays and Saturdays.

On Sundays the picture gets thin. Routes like the 75, 86A and X4 don't run past midnight at all. If you're out on a Sunday night, your options shrink to about seven routes, most finishing by 12:15am.

If you need an early morning bus before regular services start, the 86A leaves Liverpool ONE at 4:20am and 4:40am on weekdays, and the 17X leaves Queen Square at 4:55am every day.
