A display apparatus and a method for driving a display panel thereof are provided. The display apparatus comprises a display panel and a gate driver. The display panel comprises two gate lines, two source lines, a pixel and two transistors. The pixel is electrically coupled to the two gate lines and the two source lines through the two transistors respectively. The gate driver is for providing a first pulse to one of the gate lines according to a predetermined frequency and providing a second pulse to another one according to the predetermined frequency. An enabling period of the second pulse is behind an enabling period of the first pulse, and a predetermined time interval is existed between a rising edge of the second pulse and a rising edge of the first pulse. The predetermined time interval is longer than a time length of the enabling period of the first pulse.
