Pete Doherty is set to kick off a series of solo shows at the Bournemouth Opera House tomorrow night (September 24).

The show will be part of a tour that will see him return to the scene of his first reunion with former Libertines bandmate Carl Barat.

Pete Doherty and Carl Barat reunited at the Hackney Empire in April 2007 – the first time they had performed together since The Libertines split up.

Doherty will play a solo show at the London venue again on October 2.

He will also play shows in Manchester, Middlesborough and Coventry as part of the short tour.

Meanwhile, the former Libertines reunited at the Prince Of Wales pub in north London on September 17, where they played an acoustic set together for London Fashion Week.

Pete Doherty will play:

Bournemouth Opera House (September 24)
Middlesborough Town Hall (25)
Coventry Kasbah (26)
London Hackney Empire (2)
Manchester Ritz (October 3)
