Its orbital period is 4.60 years; since that is not an exact multiple of the Earth year, the closest approach is not at the same date every year. You can check astronomical sites for "opposition of Ceres"; the closest approach is usually close to the opposition. For example, in 2016, Ceres was in opposition on 21 October.
