A method for fabricating a display device includes the steps of forming a multilayer structure in which a first conducting film and a second conducting film are stacked in this order, removing part of the second conducting film and forming a contact region in which the first conducting film does not overlap with the second conducting film, thereby forming the electrode portion from the multilayer structure, forming a planarized film made of a photosensitive material on the substrate on which the electrode portion is formed to cover the electrode portion, thereby forming a contact hole located inside the contact region and passing through the planarized film, and forming a pixel electrode on a surface of the planarized film to cover part of the first conducting film located inside the contact hole and exposed from the planarized film.
