Want to complete the Summer Sock Hop mini-season challenges but don’t know how to get, equip, and use the Shimmy Dance emote in Fallout 76? I’ve got you covered with this guide.
For players who don’t know, the Shimmy Dance is a brand new Emote that you need for completing the ongoing Summer Sock Hop event challenges.
These challenges reward you with Event Tickets that you can claim to get the 20 rewards offered within this mini-season.
But the issue is, many returning players don’t know how to get this Shimmy Dance emote. And some who do, they don’t know how to equip and use it.
That is why I prepared this guide.
How to use the Shimmy Dance Emote in Fallout 76

In Fallout 76, to use the Shimmy Dance emote, you must first head to the ‘Seasons’ tab.

Select the ‘Sock Hop’ event.


On the first page, you will find the Shimmy Dance emote for free. Select it and claim the emote.

After that, head to the ‘Atomic Shop.’

Navigate to the ‘Emotes’ tab.

Look for the Shimmy Dance emote. Once you find it, equip it by pressing the ‘Enter’ key or the corresponding key on the controller.

Now, open the Emotes panel. On PC, it is the ‘G’ key.

Expand the Dance emote and select Shimmy Dance. And that’s it.
