The 64th edition of the Omloop Het volk was held on 1 March 2008. The race was won by Philippe Gilbert after a 50 km solo breakaway.
Gilbert broke clear from the splintered peloton on the Eikenberg, with 50 km and two climbs to go, and held off the chasing group on the flat run-in towards the finish in Ghent. Nick Nuyens won the sprint for second place ahead of Thor Hushovd at one minute from Gilbert.
