Provided is an absorbent article, comprising: an absorbent main body (10) further comprising an absorbent core (11); and a pair of gathers (50) which are disposed on both sides of the absorbent main body (10) in the lateral direction, and which further comprise elastic members (55) which extend and contract in the longitudinal direction. The absorbent core (11) further comprises concave parts (11c) in which center parts in the longitudinal direction are curved inward in the lateral direction. Bond parts (61) at which surfaces on one side of the gathers (50) in the thickness direction are bonded to each other are provided in at least portions of regions of the gathers (50) which correspond to the concave parts (11c) in the longitudinal direction. Non-bond parts (62) at which surfaces on one side of the gathers (50) in the thickness direction are not bonded to each other are provided in regions which are further toward one end sides of the gathers (50) than the bond parts (61) in the longitudinal direction and/or further toward the other side therefrom.
