1. A display device comprising:
a display area; and
a non-display area adjacent to the display area and including a pad portion, wherein the display area comprises:
light emitting elements disposed in a first direction in a first pixel row;
pixel circuits disposed in the first direction in a first circuit row and electrically connected to the light emitting elements of the first pixel row;
light emitting elements disposed in the first direction in a second pixel row between the first pixel row and the first circuit row;
pixel circuits disposed in the first direction in a second circuit row and electrically connected to the light emitting elements of the second pixel row; and
a gate driver including a first stage disposed between the pixel circuits of the first circuit row that provide a gate signal to the pixel circuits of the first circuit row and a second stage disposed between the pixel circuits of the second circuit row that provides a gate signal to the pixel circuits of the second circuit row, and
a distance between adjacent pixel circuits with the first stage disposed between the adjacent pixel circuits in the first circuit row is greater than a distance between other pixel circuits of the first circuit row.
