Gemini will be due north at about 03:00 DST. It rises in the NE at around 22:45 and sets in the NW at around 07:40.
Meteor showers are usually best between midnight and astronomical twilight which now is at about 4am.
Just because the radiant is in Gemini that does not mean that is the only place you'll see them. Any meteor that shows up as a streak pointing away from Gemini will almost certainly be a Geminid.
