        Hi,
the vCard format gives you all details stored in the address book and
used by the evolution, though the second step of converting the vCards
into something usable can be an obstacle.

There is a tool application
   /usr/libexec/evolution/evolution-addressbook-export
which allows to export to vCard and to CSV. Use --help to get the
options. The CSV format should contain the birthday and anniversary
dates. You will still need to post-process the output, though it might
be easier than with the vCard format.
        Bye,
        Milan
