Zusammenfassung:	A backlight device and an image display apparatus which are capable of controlling the degree of diffusion of emitted light are provided. The backlight device according to the present disclosure includes: a light source; a light guide plate that causes surface emission of light emitted from the light source; a directivity control film that is provided on a light-emitting side of the light guide plate, and causes the light emitted from the light guide plate to have directivity; and a liquid crystal diffusion element that is switchable between a first state in which the light emitted from the directivity control film is transmitted as it is, and a second state in which the light emitted from the directivity control film is diffused.
