How is 'llamaremos' different from 'vamos a llamar'?

Both mean 'we will call.' 'Llamaremos' is the formal simple future tense. 'Vamos a llamar' uses the structure 'ir a + infinitive' and is generally used more often in everyday spoken Spanish for near-future plans. They are interchangeable for most casual conversation.

Does 'llamaremos' sound formal?

No, the future tense is still very common and sounds neutral. It is perfect for making definite plans or promises: 'Mañana, llamaremos al banco' (Tomorrow, we will call the bank).
