Microcavity exciton-polaritons within GaN-based structures are the object of the present work. The impact of the structural imperfections on the properties of the two-dimensional polariton gas is investigated through the calculation of its phase diagram. We demonstrate that the presence of disorder first induces a quasi-phase transition of the polariton system towards a Bose-glass phase before it becomes superfluid as its density increases. Calculations of the density of states as well as the condensate wavefunction and the related spectrum of elementary excitations in the framework of the Gross-Pitaevskii theory provide further insight into the properties of exciton-polaritons in GaN-based microcavities.
