A flexible display apparatus includes: a substrate; a gate insulating layer including an inorganic layer disposed on the substrate; a gate line disposed on the gate insulating layer; an inter-insulating layer including an inorganic layer and covering the gate line; and a data line disposed on the inter-insulating layer, where the flexible display apparatus has a first region which is bendable and second regions at opposite sides of the first region, respectively, portions of the gate insulating layer and the inter-insulating layer in the first region are removed, and the gate insulating layer and the inter-insulating layer in the second region have a patterned structure.
