Abstract This paper aims to discuss the viable and analytic solution of the spherically symmetric gravastar model under the influence of modification of Gauss–Bonnet gravity, i.e., f(G) gravity, where G is the Gauss–Bonnet curvature term. For this purpose, we evaluate the field equations in corresponding theory and conservation equation with the help of an effective energy–momentum tensor. A mathematical formalism of the gravastar’s three regions, i.e., interior de-Sitter region, thin shell, and the exterior Schwarzschild vacuum region have been discussed. We, then analyze different realistic features, in particular energy, entropy, and length of the shell. The viability of these physical features is then examined through the graphical representations separately. Within the framework of an alternative theory, we have obtained the exact and singularity free model of gravastar.
