Most other routes across the city run their last bus from the city centre between 11pm and midnight.
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.
After that, the 500 to the airport is the latest regular service, running every night until about 12:27am. The 437 to West Kirby and the 10A to St Helens are next.
On Sundays the picture gets thin. Routes like the 86, 86A, 423 and 433 don't run past midnight at all. If you're out on a Sunday night, you're down to about 10 options, and most of them finish by 12:05am.
If you're catching an early morning bus before the regular services start, the 17X leaves Queen Square at 4:55am every day.
Manchester and Lancashire posts coming next.
