Normal and Heroic dungeons will be open right as Legion goes live, but Mythic difficulty won’t join until the weekly dungeon reset which, as of an expansion pre-patch, has been moved to Wednesday. More specifically,  07:00:00 UTC for all European realms and 15:00:00 UTC for all North American, Latin American, and Oceanic realms.

The Emerald Nightmare Raid won’t be opening until September 20, with Mythic difficulty available a week later on September 27.

LFR players will be the last to access Emerald Nightmare, with Raid Finder for wings opening up at the end of September and through October.
