The band, who had been touring the US with original lead singer David Lee Roth, have allegedly pulled the plug on the tour due to "issues" with Eddie Van Halen.
The guitarist struggled to play at recent shows after allegedly turning up to the gigs intoxicated.
Recent concerts in Virginia and Georgia had to be rescheduled for mid-March with no reason given for the postponements.
The 'Jump' rockers have reportedly cancelled all hotel reservations for the tour, which was due to run until April 19.
Van Halen formed in 1972 but have had a turbulent career with the band changing lead singers on multiple occasions.
