I believe it would be future, I am not a hundred percent on that because it doesn't have the word "will" in the sentence however it is talking about something that will happen in the future. Is that correct?

True. The phrase "are going" could be present tense -- as in -- What are you wearing now?
However, in your sentence, the word "tomorrow" tells us that the verb is in the future tense.

Technically, "are going" is present progressive tense, but Ms. Sue is right -- the word "tomorrow" indicates the future.
