The upscale nightclub, located in Canggu, is popular among foreign tourists, the Bali Times reported.

Just after 1am on May 22 two groups of male holidaymakers started having a heated exchange.

What started as a verbal dispute quickly became physical when one of the men allegedly threw a glass towards the other group.

The action triggered a huge brawl to kick off in the centre of the packed out venue.

Video footage shows the men bashing each other with liquor bottles, leaving shards of glass strewn across the ground.

Blood was also seen, appearing to be splattered all over the nightclub’s floor.

Other patrons quickly scattered in a panic as the fight raged on.

Multiple men ended the fight without their shirts on.

Party-goers from other groups could be seen trying to intervene as the club’s security also stepped in between the brawling sides.

The Bali Times reported that some of men had to be taken to a local hospital in the aftermath of the violent clash.

A spokesperson for the local Badung Police confirmed officers had attended the nightclub.

“We can confirm that a fight occurred between two groups of foreign nationals,” public relations officers, Aiptu Ni Nyoman Ayu Inastuti said.

“The police chief and the criminal investigation unit went directly to the scene to gather witness statements and review CCTV footage.”

Investigators also revealed the fight had involved at least 14 people, divided between two groups of seven.

It is believed that alcohol consumption and the nightclub’s crowded environment contributed to the brawl, but whatever sparked the heated dispute remains unknown.

At least 462 revellers had attended the venue that evening, according to the Bali Times.

But the club’s ideal capacity is estimated at under 100.

The police temporarily shut down the club as the investigation continued.

Authorities are still investigating the men involved.

The Sun has reached out to Jade by Todd English.

The horrific brawl comes after drunk foreigners were seen bashing up several security guards outside another popular Canggu beach club Finns.

The tourists – one who was later identified as an Australian national – were triggered by a commotion inside the club.

In February, the police said security had spotted one of the brawlers strangling another guest, following an altercation with a woman.

“Security tried to control the situation and remove the guests, but once outside, the guests began to rebel against the guards,” police said.

The confronting footage showed the shirtless foreign tourists assaulting security with blocks of wood before fleeing the scene.

At the time, police said the tourists then fled the scene.

The Balinese government doubled down last year on its zero-tolerance approach to unruly travellers.

In March, 2025, Bali governor Wayan Koster said he updated the “do’s and don’ts” list that outlined obligations, prohibitions, and penalties for foreigners.

“We issued a similar regulation before, but as things change, we need to adapt,” he said.

“This ensures that Bali’s tourism remains respectful, sustainable, and in harmony with our local values.”

The guidelines aim to ensure respectful behaviour when visiting sacred sites and enforcing the payment of Bali’s tourist levy.

The 150,000 IDR (£11) tourist levy came into effect in February 2024, with plans to use the money to help protect Bali’s culture, customs, and environment.
