According to one embodiment, a flexible substrate includes flexible insulating base material, conductive lines, a support body and a coating layer. The conductive lines are provided on the insulating base material. The support body supports the insulating base material. The coating layer covers the insulating base material and the support body. The conductive lines include scanning lines and signal lines. The scanning lines extend in a first direction and are arranged side by side in a second direction intersecting the first direction. The signal lines extend in the second direction and are arranged side by side in the first direction. The support body and the coating layer have a through hole in a region enclosed by two adjacent scanning lines and two adjacent signal lines.
