To sleep late/sleep until late

Hello,

Do these sentences sound okay? If they do, don't they have slightly different meanings?

- Tomorrow's a national holiday, so I can sleep late.

- Tomorrow's a national holiday, so I can sleep until late.


I think it might be more idiomatic to use "sleep in".



Thank you.

The first sentence is okay. You can also say "...so I can sleep in."


The second sentence is not right. The phrase, "...sleep until late.", is ungrammatical.
