An apparatus for manufacturing a display apparatus includes: a first mold configured to accommodate a cover member thereon; a magnetic first guide in the first mold; a second mold arranged to face the first mold; and a magnetic shape-variable unit in the second mold. The shape-variable unit is configured to come into contact with and move a panel member toward the cover member, and a first portion of the panel member is configured to contact the cover member before a second portion of the panel member contacts the cover member due to a magnetic force between the shape-variable unit and the first guide.
