The present disclosure provides a display apparatus and a display panel. The display panel includes: a drive backplate, including a substrate and a drive circuit layer on the substrate, where the drive circuit layer includes drive circuit regions arranged at intervals and transparent regions around the drive circuit regions, the transparent region includes concave parts, and a number of layers in the respective concave parts of the drive circuit layer is less than a number of layers in the respective drive circuit regions; a side of the drive circuit regions of the drive circuit layer away from the substrate includes pads for connecting a light-emitting unit; a light-transmissive glue for filling the concave parts, and a surface of the light-transmissive glue away from the substrate is on a side of the pads away from the substrate. The present disclosure can improve display effect.
