In a plasma display and a driving method thereof, a misfiring prevention period is provided between a reset period and an address period in response to a temperature of the plasma display being higher than predetermined temperature or a weight value of a previous subfield being higher than a predetermined weight value. In the misfiring prevention period, a first voltage higher than a voltage supplied to a sustain electrode is supplied during a first period, and a voltage at a scan electrode is gradually decreased from a second voltage to a third voltage during a second period subsequent to the first period.
