I will give you just a few tips here and there: i recommend the Trastevere quarter by night..it's full of restaurants, bars, and people gather spontaneously in Piazza Trilussa, just close to a bridge (can't remember the name).
Some of the most famous restaurants are Il Baffetto (Pizzeria). You will recognise them for the 1 h long queue outside.

There are many clubs. I don't know when you will be there, but the Roman nightlife is ceaseless. Rome is better enjoyed open air, though.

For the horror fans there's Dario Argento's shop a block far from the Vatican. Check online to get the address or ask me if you have problems.

In Rome you can do whatever you want: generally i would recommend a walk, a visit, then get back to hostel to refresh (weather will be around 35 degrees in end of June) and get out for a nice dinner.

Megascreens for major internation competitions are likely to be at Circo Massimo, in Rome's centre.

Enjoy it, it's a once in a lifetime visit. You can return and enjoy it every time more, but the first visit is the best. I'm seriously considering to move there in first person, and once i finish my studies i will consider it.

Mind that visiting Rome is something that requires 4-5 days just to scratch the surface of Roman life. My tips are just a starter, but i could fill 20-30 pages of MM.
