A method of manufacturing a display device, the method including providing a substrate, forming a first electrode, a second electrode spaced from the first electrode and in a same plane as the first electrode, a first alignment line connected to the first electrode, and a second alignment line connected to the second electrode on the substrate, self-aligning the plurality of light emitting elements by providing a solution containing a plurality of light emitting elements on the substrate, removing the first alignment line and the second alignment line from the substrate on which the plurality of light emitting elements are self-aligned, forming a first contact electrode electrically connecting one end of each light emitting element to the first electrode, and forming a second contact electrode electrically connecting an other end of each light emitting element to the second electrode.
