A stereoscopic video display apparatus includes: a two-dimensional display unit which selects, for each of parallax images having a parallax from a reference parallax image, at least one pixel sequence on a panel, and displays each of the parallax images using the selected pixel sequence; a barrier part which divides light from the pixel sequences such that the respective parallax images are displayed at predetermined positions; a position detecting unit which detects the positions of viewers; and a parallax image arrangement control unit which specifies viewing positions possible for the left eyes of the viewers from among the detected viewing positions other than the viewing positions for the right eyes, and cause the two-dimensional display unit to respectively display the parallax images predetermined for the left eyes at the specified positions.
