PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a UV irradiation apparatus provided with a mask for shielding UV irradiation of an area except for a sealant forming area so as to harden the UV-hardening sealant without exerting bad influence on the characteristic of an alignment layer or a thin film transistor, and to provide a mask holder for effectively holding the mask. SOLUTION: The UV irradiation apparatus comprises: a substrate stage; a UV source part; the mask formed between the substrate stage and the UV source part; and the mask holder for holding the mask. The mask holder includes a lower part having a square frame and a mask supporting member supporting a mask, wherein the mask supporting member is in the square frame and has a plurality of first connecting portions, and an upper part having a plurality of second connecting portions to be aligned with the first connecting portions.
