This is my solution. It also works if date of birth is January 1st and today's date is December 31.

SELECT `id`, `name`, `dateofbirth`,
    DATE_ADD(
        dateofbirth, 
        INTERVAL IF(DAYOFYEAR(dateofbirth) >= DAYOFYEAR(CURDATE()),
            YEAR(CURDATE())-YEAR(dateofbirth),
            YEAR(CURDATE())-YEAR(dateofbirth)+1
        ) YEAR
    ) AS `next_birthday`
FROM `user` 
WHERE 
    `dateofbirth` IS NOT NULL
HAVING 
    `next_birthday` BETWEEN CURDATE() AND DATE_ADD(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 7 DAY)
ORDER BY `next_birthday`
LIMIT 1000;
