Pete Doherty has announced the rescheduled dates for his Irish tour.

Doherty originally cancelled three gigs scheduled to take place in October after he was hospitalised.

Although the cancellation was initially blamed on "exhaustion", Doherty has since admitted to NME.COM that he was put on a life support machine after collapsing at his home.

The singer has now rescheduled the gigs, and will return to Ireland in January.

Pete Doherty plays:

Dublin The Academy (January 20)
Galway Heineken Green Spheres show at Roisin Dubh (21)
Belfast Mandela Hall (22)

Tickets for the original dates are still valid, while a number of tickets for the Dublin show are still available.
