CNBC has just announced its coverage plans for this weekend's big Berkshire Hathaway annual shareholder meeting in Omaha, including an unprecedented and exclusive one-hour look behind-the-scenes at how Warren Buffett's "Woodstock for Capitalists" comes together.  (Here at CNBC.com, we're calling it Buffettstock '08!)

Becky Quick will be in Omaha starting Friday morning for live previews of what to expect over the weekend. 

The big highlight, of course, is Saturday's multi-hour question-and-answer session with Buffett and his partner Charlie Munger.  

Warren Buffett Watch will also be in Omaha for the weekend.  I'll be live blogging the Saturday session minute-by-minute starting around 10:30am ET.  Look for lots of other posts throughout the meeting.

Becky will then show you all the highlights Monday morning during Squawk Box, followed by a one-hour special Monday night at 9p and 12a ET titled The Billionaire Next Door: All Access.

If you can't be in Omaha (or even if you are one of the thousands of shareholders planning to attend), CNBC and CNBC.com will bring you all the sights, sounds, news and opinions from the big weekend.
