ANAHEIM, Calif., March 7 (UPI) -- Disneyland says several new attractions, including Cars Land, are on track to open at the Disney California Adventure park in Anaheim this June.

Scheduled to debut June 15 are Buena Vista Street, which was created to look like Los Angeles in the 1920s, and the Carthay Circle Theatre, which was modeled after the site of the 1937 world premiere of "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" and which now houses an elegant restaurant.

Cars Land immerses guests in Radiator Springs, the setting of the Disney-Pixar blockbuster "Cars."

The new additions will complete the five-year expansion of Disneyland Resort, a vacation destination in Southern California with two theme parks, three hotels and the Downtown Disney shopping and dining district.
