Quelle est la date de ton rendez-vous le mois prochain ?
What is the date of your appointment next month?
From Lesson 41:Question words for time (quand, à quelle heure)·French

Questions & Answers about Quelle est la date de ton rendez-vous le mois prochain ?

The lesson is about time question words like quand (when). Why do we use Quelle here instead?
You could absolutely ask Quand est ton rendez-vous ? (When is your appointment?), but this sentence specifically asks for the exact calendar date. To ask 'what is the [noun]', French uses quel or quelle, rather than quand.
Why is it spelled Quelle with a double L and an E?
The word quel means 'which' or 'what', and its spelling changes to match the gender of the noun it describes. Because the word for date (la date) is feminine, we use the feminine form Quelle.
In English we just say 'next month'. Why is there a le in le mois prochain?
In French, time phrases like 'next month' or 'next year' require a definite article (le or la). Also, notice the word order: the adjective prochain (next) comes after the noun it describes, so it literally translates to 'the month next'.
The English sentence uses both 'date' and 'appointment'. How do these words work in French?
In French, une date strictly refers to a day on the calendar (like May 4th). It is never used for a social event. If you mean a scheduled meeting, a doctor's visit, or a romantic date, you must use the word un rendez-vous.
