Since your Ad will appear for 60 days, you can post your scheduled Event almost two months in advance.
Some people will schedule an event for a particular month (for ex., "Jane Doe's Wedding" in June), while others may want to use a particular "Observance" (for example, "Celebrating Women's History Month with musical legend Carol King"). However, YOU determine how you want to post your Event Ad.
