Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump will visit the UK on 24 June to open a golf course in Scotland.
He will arrive the day after the EU referendum to officially open the Trump Turnberry golf resort in Ayrshire.
He said: "Very exciting that one of the great resorts of the world, Turnberry, will be opening today after a massive £200m investment.
"I own it and I am very proud of it. I look forward to attending the official opening of this great development on 24 June."
The main Turnberry hotel building has been remodelled, and the Turnberry lighthouse has been restored to create a new 'presidential suite' for guests.
The property was bought by Mr Trump in 2014 and is the second Scottish golf resort he has launched.
The first was Trump International Golf Links in Aberdeenshire in 2012.
More than 500,000 people have signed a petition calling for Mr Trump to be banned from entering the UK.
It follows his call for a "total and complete shutdown of Muslims" entering the US and his claim that parts of London were "so radicalised" that police were "afraid for their own lives".
Last month David Cameron said Mr Trump's comments were "dangerous" and "divisive and wrong".
However, the Prime Minister did add that he would be prepared to meet him if he visited the UK.
Downing Street said no plans had been made to use the occasion for a first meeting between the billionaire tycoon and Mr Cameron.
Meanwhile, in North Korea the candidate has been receiving some good coverage from the country's tightly controlled media.
An opinion piece praised him as "wise" and full of foresight, while another noted how his suggestions that he would be willing to meet leader Kim Jong-Un have created a "Trump Shock" in South Korea.
