A user of Drowning in Sound claimed on the 21st of January that a "reliable industry source" indicated that Muse would be headlining V Festival 2008.[8] Three days later, Glastonbury organiser Michael Eavis commented that he'd heard that Muse were playing V Festival.[9] In the comment, he appeared unsure - this belief may have derived from rumours started by the aforementioned claim.[8][9] Following Eavis' comment, eFestivals listed Muse as a "strong rumour".[10] However, on the 29th of January they removed Muse.[10] The next day, an eFestivals admin stated they had information that Muse were not going to play V Festival 2008.[11] This information proved to be false, as on the 12th of February, the official Muse website announced Muse would be playing V Festival 2008.[2]
The first pre-sale took place on the 3rd of March, for customers of Virgin Media or Virgin Mobile services only. A second pre-sale took place during the hour before general sale, at 09:00 on the 7th of March.[12] General sale started the same day[2] at 10:00.[13] Weekend with camping and day tickets sold out on that day,[6] weekend without camping tickets sold out sometime over the next nine days.[7]
Matthew Bellamy initially said in the June 2008 issue of Q magazine that "a couple of new songs should be played",[source?] but later recanted during a July after-show party, wherein he stated that no new music would be played live this year.[14] As previously hinted at,[source?] the band submitted a plan to the festival's health and safety personnel, for a "stunt" involving a model UFO approaching the stage. This plan was rejected.[15]
Last performances of Osaka Jam and Invincible to date. Once the gig had finished, Who Knows Who was played back instead of the usual Come Fly With Me by Frank Sinatra.

| After Hysteria | "Thank you very much." | |
| Howard | "Nice cock to the man with the white flag.... There he is" | |
| After Butterflies & Hurricanes | Bellamy | "Cheers!" |
| After Feeling Good | "Thank you very much." | |
| After Invincible | "Thanks a lot." | |
