A display system having a projector and a projection plate and adapted to project an image from the projector toward the projection plate to thereby display the image includes a proximity detection section adapted to detect a proximity of another display system, which has a projector and a projection plate, and is adapted to project an image from the projector toward the projection plate to thereby display the image, and a control section adapted to make the image, which is displayed on either one of the projection plate and the projection plate of the another display system, be displayed on the other of the projection plate and the projection plate of the another display system in a case in which the proximity detection section detects the proximity of the another display system.
