David Lee Roth’s scheduled performances in Las Vegas on New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day were canceled, reportedly due to COVID-related concerns.
Las Vegas television station KTNV noted they were sent a press release stating the following, “Due to unforeseen circumstances related to COVID and out of an abundance of caution for those working and attending the shows, the David Lee Roth performances scheduled for Dec. 31st, 2021 and Jan. 1st, 2022, have been canceled. Refunds will be automatically processed, and ticketholders will be notified directly.”
This message matches up almost verbatim to a tweet from the House of Blues Las Vegas, posted earlier in the evening but since taken down. While that tweet has been deleted, the performances are marked “canceled” on the venue’s website with no further explanation given.
Roth still has a string of Vegas dates remaining on his calendar, with the next performance scheduled for January 5th. Earlier this year, the former Van Halen frontman announced he’d be retiring, with the Sin City dates serving as his final shows.

While hoping Dave and crew are okay. There couldn’t-be a better city to be canceled in on New Year’s and perhaps not seeing Dave might’ve been the highlight of someone’s evening.
I don’t care about roth anymore he’s done , no shine left on the diamond
COVID is a great excuse for low ticket sales.
