The Brisbane International Waiters Race is a fundraising, highly visible, fun and exiting multicultural event.

Waiters and waitresses representing restaurants in Queensland will gather in The Queen Street Mall to compete in a race with a difference-the runners have to carry Vittoria Coffee coffee cups on a tray without spilling a drop.
The waiters' race, or Corsa dei Camerieri in Italian, an annual event during Italian Week features waiters and waitresses mostly from Italian restaurants competing from the title of brisbane Fastest Cameriere.
