Which is the correct usage?

We could use either simple present or present continuous as ways of expressing the future. If going tomorrow is a fixed arrangement, that is we know we are going for sure. Which tense would be correct here?

1. We're going on holiday tomorrow.
2. We go on holiday tomorrow.

Thanks in advance!

We are going on a holiday is correct because simple present tense is used while showing a particular date , time or event which has already been planned . eg : The president arrives on Monday

Yes, I Understand. But, I am specifying a date(tomorrow)here. Isn't it?

Native speakers would use either one. Perhaps I would prefer the first one.
