To provide an exposure apparatus and an exposure method capable of reducing the cost of manufacturing a mask or the apparatus as a whole and achieving efficient exposure.
A proximity scanning exposure apparatus 1 includes: a substrate transfer mechanism 20, which supports a substrate W at least in an exposure region by floating and transfers the substrate W in a prescribed direction; a plurality of mask holding sections 71, which respectively hold a plurality of masks M whereupon patterns P are formed, and are arranged in a staggered manner along a direction intersecting the prescribed direction; and a plurality of irradiating sections 80, which are respectively arranged on upper portions of the mask holding sections 71 and irradiate the masks with exposure light. The substrate W being transferred in the prescribed direction is irradiated with exposure light EL through the plurality of masks M, and the patterns P of the masks M are transferred by exposure onto the substrate W.
