Abstract: A method for manufacturing display apparatus comprises: forming a display panel by forming a plurality of display elements on a substrate having flexibility; providing a holding member at a part of or the entire of an outer edge of the display panel along the outer edge, the holding member engaging with an outer periphery of the display panel; preparing a supporting member having a surface on which the substrate of the display panel is to be placed; placing the substrate on the surface of the supporting member; bonding the holding member to the surface of the supporting member; and bringing the substrate into close contact with the surface of the supporting member at a strength lower than a bonding strength between the holding member and the surface of the supporting member.
