The building, designed by Norwegian architecture firm Snoehetta, is made with stone and glass and situated next to the waterfront at Bjêªrvika.
The project was initially embroiled in years of controversy over spending and location. Costs are expected to reach $450 million but the project, one of the largest in Oslo's history, has remained within budget. Officials hope it will help reinvigorate the waterfront area.
Lileana Blain-Cruz directs the new production, opening April 23.
The Cuban-born composer is this season's Debs Composer's Chair.
The cast is led by Bryonha Marie and Nathan Gunn, with Tony winner Ted Sperling at the baton.
The season, opening September 21, will include 58 ballets across 21 weeks of performances.
