* Treasure Trap - One of the oldest LARP groups in the UK, beginning in the 1970's. The original system is now defunct but student spin-offs are still running in Durham and [[Cambridge University Treasure Trap|Cambridge]].
* IFGS: The International Fantasy Gaming Society, inspired by the [[Larry Niven]] and Steve Barnes ''Dream Park'' series.
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20131204141104/http://www.skullduggerylarp.co.uk/ Skullduggery] A medium sized LARP based in the south east of England who have been featured on British TV several times, most notably when Dara O'Brien tried his hand at LARP for the Tough Gig series.
* The [[Society for Creative Anachronism]], or SCA is not a LARP and calling it one is bound to press someone's [[Berserk Button]] but deserves mention here because many of the roots of LARPing lie in it and there is substantial membership crossover. The same goes for Renaissance Faires.
* [[Model United Nations]] has been described—including on its page—as LARPing in suits and getting away with calling it "an educational activity." In all fairness, MUN involves a lot less fighting between characters.
