In the video, two separate groups of men can be seen throwing punches in the middle of the crowded room as horrified revellers look on.
A man in a grey t-shirt attempts to stop more people from joining the fight, as the blonde-haired woman holding a drink can moves behind him.
She appears to try and break up the brawl and is pulled into the middle of the floor, where two men wearing white shirts are fighting.
One of the men, whose shirt has been ripped open, appears to try and hit the man with a powerful, left-handed punch.

But he misses his target and hits the woman square in the face, causing her head to violently jolt back before she falls to the ground.
The man who filmed the footage, Freddie Salerno, said a number of people eventually stopped the fight as a friend tended to the woman.
He said it was unclear how the fight started, adding: ‘I just came upstairs and heard a lot of screaming and I looked over and saw this.
‘Everything calmed down and returned to as it was before the fight. It was as if nothing happened.’
A police spokesperson said officers attended the venue, but earlier in the night for an unrelated incident.
The spokesperson said: ‘We had received reports of a person having been stabbed in the hand but further enquiries by attending patrols established the person had injured their hand on a fence and there was no assault.’
