The £80 million attraction on Dundee’s waterfront will open to the public on Saturday September 15.
V&A Dundee director Philip Long said: “We are thrilled to be preparing to launch the first dedicated design museum in Scotland, and to reveal a remarkable new piece of architecture by Kengo Kuma.
“The new museum is at the heart of a truly incredible city and we look forward to celebrating the opening.”
