Like anybody else who likes the wee hours of the morning – and the chance to socialize with or without alcohol in those hours – news that some bars, restaurants and catering facilities would be able to push closing times from 2 to 4 a.m. during the Democratic National Convention was welcomed, to say the least.

It started in February, when the DNC said it was eyeing those extra hours, what with the convention events not ending until later in the evening.

And now, with the convention just hours away, let's take a look at what places will be open late.

A Friday call to the mayor’s press office led to a referral to the Philadelphia 2016 Host Committee, which responded on Saturday with a link to the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board’s list of “National Event Permits” that include places granted the right to stay open later.

You can see the entire list via this link, which doesn’t delineate private and public events, but the vast majority of 4 a.m. spots are at hotels where delegates are staying. (If others are added to this list, or if people aligned with those on the list want to send in details, we’ll update this post throughout the convention.)

If hyperlinks aren’t your thing, here’s a collection of locations (with dates of permit clearance) that have been granted the extended hours as of Saturday afternoon:
