An airbag apparatus includes an airbag, a collision detector, and a deploying-gas supplier. The airbag is configured to be deployed in front of an occupant sitting in a seat of a vehicle. The collision detector is configured to detect an occurrence or sign of a collision of the vehicle.

The first bag is configured to be deployed to restrain a right knee and a right shoulder of the occupant. The second bag is configured to be deployed to restrain a left knee and a left shoulder of the occupant. The third bag is configured to be deployed at a position closer to the occupant than the first bag and the second bag and to restrain lumbar and abdomen regions of the occupant.
