The light guide plate 16 arranged such that a light entrance surface 16b faces the LED 17. The frame 13 is fixed to the chassis 14. The frame 13 and the chassis 14 hold the liquid crystal panel 11 and the light guide plate 16 therebetween. The frame 13 includes a panel holding portion 13a and a sidewall portion 13b. The panel holding portion 13a holds the liquid crystal panel 11 from the display surface 11a side. The sidewall portion 13b continues from the panel holding portion 13a and extends on the light entrance surface 16b side. The frame 13a includes a through hole 40 that runs through the sidewall portion 13a. The LED unit 30 is fitted in the through hole 40 from the outer side such that the LED 17 is positioned more to the inner side than the sidewall portion 13b and at least a portion of the LED unit 30 is held inside the through hole 40.
