The music sounds like magic. Macbeth enters and wants the witches to tell him his future. They conjure up three apparitions for him. The first one tells him to beware of Macduff. The second tells him that he cannot be harmed by a man 'born of woman'. The third one says that he cannot be conquered till Birnam Wood marches against him.

Macbeth is then shown the ghost of Banco and his descendants , eight future Kings of Scotland. This shows that the witches prophecy from the beginning of the opera must indeed come true. Scottish refugees stand near the English border and sing a song about how Macbeth, the tyrant , is oppressing his people. They want to free Scotland from tyranny. A doctor and a servant watch the Queen as she walks in her sleep, wringing her hands trying to clean them of blood.

Macbeth has heard that an army is coming towards him. He is told that the Queen is dead, but he does not seem to mind. He gets his army together.
