Get on this!

Ireland’s Grand Slam heroes will have an official homecoming at the Aviva Stadium, Lansdowne Road, on Sunday afternoon.

Joe Schmidt’s men will return to Dublin Airport just after 2pm and make their way to their home stadium to celebrate their Six Nations and Grand Slam success. The celebrations will begin from 4:30pm.

Ireland beat England 24-15 at Twickenham to claim only their third Grand Slam on the back of their third championship win in five seasons.

The event in Dublin will be free for Irish fans to attend but tickets must be secured through Ticketmaster. The tickets went up on the site at 6pm on Saturday.

Ireland captain Rory Best and his men will show off their championship and Triple Crown trophies and pose for pictures with fans.

It should be one hell of an afternoon.
