super 24 horas?


Explanation:
Las respuestas de arriba me parecen muy bien, con la siguiente salvedad: algunas 'convenience stores' abren las 24 horas, o hasta altas horas de la noche. En México las misceláneas y tiendas de la esquina por lo general cierran temprano, y las tiendas de ese tipo que abren por la noche, por pequeñas que sean, se suelen llamar 'super 24 horas'.

Si en tu texto el 'show' termina de noche, yo pondría «los participantes fueron llevados a un super abierto las 24 horas...». Sí, en cambio, el horario no es ninguna consideración, haz caso omiso de esto por favor.
