USING THE PRESENT CONTINUOUS TO TALK ABOUT THE FUTURE
The present continuous is used to talk about arrangements for events at a time later than now. There is a suggestion that more than one person is aware of the event, and that some preparation has already happened. e.g.
I'm meeting Jim at the airport = Jim and I have discussed this.
I am leaving tomorrow. = I've already bought my train ticket.
We're having a staff meeting next Monday = all members of staff have been told about it.
Future: present continuous to talk about the future (I’m working tomorrow)
The present continuous can refer to the future. It shows that we have already decided something and usually that we have already made a plan or arrangements:
[talking about plans for a tour by a rock music group]
