I had that problem once or twice. You'll basically have to stay up 24 hours and go to sleep at an appropriate time. Use caffeine, red bull, sugar, DO NOT EAT ANYTHING HEAVY OR DO MANUAL LABOR (you need to conserve as much energy as possible), and if you feel like your falling asleep, get up and walk around a bit, it's not much but once around the block should keep you up about an hour, give or take.
As for staying asleep, you'll have to trick yourself into falling right back to sleep after you wake up, don't move around or anything, close your eyes right away, get in a comfortable position and you should lull yourself back to sleep easily, eventually you'll just stay asleep (that's what I do anyway).
