No, not the one in the UK.
Once upon a time, I used to run these fairly regularly. The best one I ever did was a while back, in 05'. We had two vendors there (a leathersmith, and Greg from Iron Liege), the IFGS peeps, another LARP group (Eidolon), and everyone brought their little ones. The IFGS faced off against the Eidolon crew for a game of Orcball (an IFGS game).
What I had in mind is to invite all the current LARP groups in Southern California; we can setup booths for each individual LARP group staffed by the group's best representatives. I would love to see the following attend as it's own entity; the IFGS (on hiatus from lack of interest), Darkon (ditto), the AOKP (based out of Whittier College), ENIGMA (based out of UCLA), the Live Effects family of games, The Coming Rennaisance (WoD), the Camarilla, Dying Kingdoms, Dagorhir (Agglegorod), Belegarth (UCI), Amtgard (the Crystalline Confederacy), Campaign, and Meridian. We would also probably run a booth for the northern game that sponsors many of our efforts, Realms of Conflict.
Thinking about doing this in May, and at Huntington Beach Central Park, where I used to run them. We could have battlegame events; tourneys that are based on fighting style (Lightest touch, Moderate, Heavy, and Full Contact), some of the Battlegame fare we run at the Fighter Guild practices, and maybe some IFGS-style arcade games (mods that groups of peeps go through; and then it resets for the next team). Fun, hang out, and rub elbows with the other members of our far flung community. This is also a perfect way to sell your group to other LARPers that might be interested.
We have vendors (we rep Iron Liege, and Fighter Guild stuff; and we have two armorers). We can bring the food, the weapons, etc.
Anyone up for it?

I know Mat doesn't want to attract a bunch of the wrong type of gamers, but perhaps he would be interested in attending for Eidolon. That way he could explain the type of game it is to folks so that they know exactly what Eidolon is about.
FrankyI will find out if Evan and Red would be interested in attending to put the word out regarding TCR( The coming Renaissance ). Since it will be summer, it would be a great time to get Local gamers into this style of game since most 5C students are from out of state.
I would Love to do this. If there is any way I can help( and if I am here ) you just need to tell me what to do.
