A display apparatus includes a gate driving control circuit, a gate driver and a display panel. The gate driving control circuit generates N gate clock signals and N inversion gate clock signals based on N gate clock control signals, phases of which partially overlap with each other. Each inversion gate clock signals has an opposite phase to a respective gate clock signal. The gate driver generates gate signals based on the N gate clock signals or the N inversion gate clock signals and applies the gate signals to gate lines. The display panel includes pixels, each connected to a respective gate line and a respective data line. Each of the pixels has a longer side in parallel with gate lines and a shorter side in parallel with the data lines. A number of the gate clock control signals is an integer multiple of a number of colors of the pixels.
