A display apparatus includes: a liquid crystal layer including liquid crystal molecules; a plurality of domains; an alignment boundary portion; an alignment film; a pixel electrode; a connection portion arranged to be overlapped with at least a part of the alignment boundary portion; and a capacitor forming portion that is arranged to be partially overlapped with a part of the connection portion with an insulating film in between and forms electrostatic capacitance. The connection portion and the capacitor forming portion extend along at least a part of the alignment boundary portion, have respective non-overlapping portions in which the connection portion and the capacitor forming portion are not overlapped with each other in a crossing direction crossing an extension direction of the connection portion and the capacitor forming portion, and arrangement of the non-overlapping portions in the crossing direction is switched between one side and another side in the extension direction.
