If your parents found out, do you realize how much trouble you would be in?
It's not like it's hard to conceal going to Vegas, anyway. You can't lie and say it's a school trip or something, because you need consent forms etc. and even if you did manage to wangle your way out of it, they'd still want contact numbers incase they couldn't get in touch with you.
Imagine the embarrassment of your parents phoning your friends/teachers/whatever and asking about you..
What if something happened to you while you were out there?
Your parents are doing this to protect you. As you get older, more responsible and more mature, your parents will become more lax with their strictness. (personally, I don't think they're even being strict at all. 1am IS late to be out. You didn't state your age, but I'm guessing you're mid teens.) Anyway, you aren't responsible or mature enough just yet, because you're thinking up a cunning plan to lie to them so you can go on holiday with a boyfriend they don't even know about.
Just stop and think about how far you're taking this.
You have two sensible options.
Tell them about your boyfriend, let them meet him, then ask about the holiday.
Or
Just flat out tell your boyfriend you can't go.
The tickets shouldn't have been ordered without your parents consent.
I know you probably really want to go, but sometimes you just have to stop and think. and do the right thing.
EDIT: In response to feedback: It wasn't a lecture. When you live under your parents house, you live under their rules. Might suck, but it's just how it goes I'm afraid.

If you're under 18 or 21, there really isn't a reason why you're out til 1am. Really. There isn't.
Cancel the tickets. Like the other advisers that have answered here: It's a VERY BAD idea.
Think about it.
First off, I'm probably assuming too much here but most likely, you're still in school. Hanging out with people til 1am is not a good thing and your parents are trying to protect you.
Second, keeping your bf a secret from your parents. That's only going to cause even more distrust and more strict rules from your folks.
If you lie about leaving for 3 - 4 days to Vegas of all places, you are going to come home to Armageddon.
Just stop and rethink this.

I've just got to say that this is far from a wise idea. FAR from it.

Okay not to seem like a negative nancy or anything, but this sounds like a really bad idea. What if you go vegas and something bad happens, then you have to call your parents, tell them, and then you will be in a heck of alot of trouble; plus Vegas is a very dangerous place.
How old are you?
I know it seems like your parents are just being old fashioned and trying to ruin your life, but they really love you and want whats best for you. I think you should talk to them about your boyfriend and show them that you are responsible. Now about staying out with your friends until 1 in the morning, it's called a curfew and parent the boundaries so that you will be safe. Plus most teenagers have curfew through the state anyway. I'm sorry if you don't like my advice I apologize, for being so forward about it.
Hope I Helped.
