We do not know the actual date but it is celebrated on June 24 since scripture tells us he was born about 6 months before Our Lord.

However, since December 25th was actually the birthday of the Roman sun god Mithras, the early church decided to make that Jesus' official day of birth to make the transition to Christianity easier for the Pagans. Jesus was most likely born around 1 October, making John's birthday probably around early April.
