<p>WILKES-BARRE &#8212; Tickets for the March 18 Blake Shelton concert at the Mohegan Sun Arena are sold out. The event became the fastest sold-out show in venue history after tickets sold out 12 minutes after going on sale on the morning of Oct. 23.</p><p>&#8220;Once again Wilkes-Barre proves that it is a must stop for any touring artist and that our fans buy tickets and come to support them,&#8221; said Brian Sipe, SMG General Manager of Mohegan Sun Arena. &#8220;Thanks to Live Nation and William Morris Endeavor Entertainment and, of course, Blake, for choosing to come to Wilkes-Barre. And thanks to every ticket buyer. It&#8217;s going to be a great night in Northeast Pa.&#8221;</p><style>
