We generally don't use 'the' with 'noon'.

We only use 'the next <weekday>' if we are specifying a particular Tuesday further ahead than the very next one.

Let's meet on Tuesday.
Let's meet on the Tuesday after next.
Let's meet on the Tuesday following the party.
:et's meet on the Tuesday of that week.
