What this grammar point covers
The future continuous is a tense used in English to talk about actions that will be happening at a specific time in the future.
When to use it
Use the future continuous to describe actions that will be in progress at a certain time in the future, or to talk about something that will happen as part of a routine or plan.
Key forms
- will be + verb-ing
- Example: I will be working.
Examples

They will be having dinner when you arrive.
Tips
- Remember to use 'will be' plus the verb with -ing.
- Do not use 'am/is/are' for the future continuous; always use 'will be'.
- Use the future continuous for actions that will be happening, not for things that are finished.
