The light guide panel has an incident surface facing the light source unit, an output surface facing the display panel, and a bottom surface facing the output surface on a side opposite to the display panel. The incident surface is a side surface of the light guide panel located between the output surface and the bottom surface. The incident surface has a concave portion in which a part of the incident surface is recessed from remaining portions when viewed from a direction perpendicular to a light guide direction of light in the incident surface and an emission direction of light in the output surface.
