Anyone who has booked tickets can receive a full refund or exchange for another date.
Among those who booked was Gloria Valdebenito, who said she had come all the way from Chile to visit the castle. She wrote: "Such a shame" Hopefully the weather will improve for the afternoon."
Others pointed out that it doesn't appear to be that windy in Edinburgh - yet.
It comes after Edinburgh Castle was forced to close on Friday due to high winds. St Andrew Square garden also closed yesterday because of the weather.
Storm Dennis is due to sweep its way through Scotland over the weekend, bringing heavy rain and strong winds of up to 70mph. Travel disruption is expected.
