In the examples you make, there is no need to use any preposition. > We can get together Wednesday night. > Since there was nothing I could do, I wandered in downtown the night of Christmas Eve. At least in American English, you can use a weekday as adverb, such as in the following sentences: > We will try again Friday. (We will try again on Friday.) > See you Wednesday. (See you on Wednesday.) This usage is reported to be chiefly North American, from the OED.
