The 32-year-old DJ, who is in a relationship with Taylor Swift, was reportedly injured after a car, driven by a 16-year-old woman, rammed into his vehicle as he made his way to LAX Airport.
According to TMZ, the How Deep Is Your Love hit-maker suffered a laceration on his face and was taken to a hospital in Los Angeles. He was forced to cancel a scheduled show on Friday before later pulling out of his headline slot at Alabama's Hangout Music Fest on Saturday.
A source from the law enforcement agency reportedly told the outlet that Calvin was a passenger in a Cadillac SUV when a Volkswagen Beetle convertible crossed the centre line and crashed into the vehicle he was riding in.
It was claimed that he impact was so severe that the Beetle, which was allegedly filled with teenagers, saw one young woman ejected from the lap of her boyfriend.
But despite sustaining acute injuries, it was reported that Calvin left the hospital 'against medical advice' after he was told there were no private rooms available at the moment.
The driver of the colliding vehicle, as well as one other passenger, are also believed to have been taking to hospital for treatment, with the latter reportedly suffering a broken pelvis.
Calvin Harris has been forced to cancel his upcoming shows, with a message on his official Facebook page reading: 'Adam's transport was involved in a collision this evening on the way to the airport.
'As a result he will be unable to perform at Omnia tonight. He has been examined by doctors and told to rest for a few days - Calvin HQ.'
TMZ later reported that Calvin has been forced to cancel his headline performance at Hangout Fest in Alabama on Saturday night due to his injuries.
The Twitter account for the festival posted on Saturday: 'Calvin Harris is unable to perform tonight. All of us at Hangout wish him and everyone involved in last night's collision a speedy recovery. '
Panic! At the Disco, were were scheduled to perform before Calvin moved into the headline slot, tweeting before their show: 'Wishing all involved in last night’s accident a speedy recovery and hope we do you proud, Calvin.'
