When to use it
明天晚上 generally means anytime after dinner, roughly 6 PM onwards. 明晚 is the casual contraction you'll see constantly in WeChat chats; 明晚见 ('see you tomorrow night') is one of the most texted phrases in China. Note that Chinese doesn't strongly distinguish 'evening' from 'night' the way English does; 晚上 covers both. If you really mean late at night, use 深夜 (shēn yè) instead. Dinner invitations almost always use 明晚.
