About First Odessa

Welcome to First Odessa, the English-language campus of First Baptist Church Odessa. Located at 709 N Lee Ave, Odessa, TX 79761, this venue hosts a variety of performances and events in a welcoming community setting. While public seating charts aren’t officially published by the church, third-party ticket sites provide interactive seating options for events. We’ve got you covered with practical details to help you plan a smooth experience—from seating insights to where to park, how to get there, and nearby hotel and dining options to consider.

Capacity and layout: The original sanctuary accommodated about 180 seats, and a successful expansion now brings the total seating capacity to 300+ for many events. For specific seating, consult the event listing for great seats or the section you want references and secure your seats early for popular performances.

Getting there: Odessa offers EZ-Rider fixed-route transit, with schedules available through the public transit system. If you’re attending on Sundays, be sure to verify service times in advance. Parking is generally available around the grounds and on nearby streets, though there isn’t a published on-site parking map from the church.

Nearby hotels and restaurants can make your visit more convenient. For comfortable lodging, consider the Odessa Marriott Hotel & Conference Center at 305 E 5th St, a short drive from First Odessa. Another solid option is La Quinta Inn & Suites Odessa North on Faudree Rd. When you’re planning dining, you’ll find local favorites and quick bites within a short ride. If you’re seeking reliable accommodations and dining recommendations, we can connect you with partner options to fit your schedule and budget.

For performers or event organizers, First Odessa serves as a flexible venue with a community feel. Remember to check event-specific details like the date and any RESCHEDULED notes if applicable, and use the event listings to confirm seating references ( great seats and the section you want ) close to your preference. We’re here to help you secure your seats and make the most of your Odessa visit.
