"We regret to announce that planned homecoming for the Grand Slam Champions has been cancelled due to the adverse weather conditions. Thank you for your incredible support throughout the campaign," reads a statement from Irish rugby.
A free entry event, the homecoming was due to be held at 4:30pm.
Speaking on Sunday morning's Marian Finucane Show on RTÉ Radio One, Joe Schmidt said he was disappointed that the Ireland team would not get a chance to thank to fans in Dublin this evening. He added that 30,000 tickets had been ordered for the event.
