Congratulations, Dan! ⚫️⚪️
"I said when I signed that I didn't want this to be just a 'stop-gap' signing to keep us up - I wanted to be here for a long time.
"So personally, it feels even more of an achievement signing this one than it was actually signing here in the first place.
"I'm delighted and looking forward to the next couple of seasons."
Burn, who featured in all 38 Premier League matches for his boyhood club last season, has also been ever-present in 2023/24, scoring one goal.
Head coach Eddie Howe was delighted at securing the defender's services for an extended period.
"Dan is a leader on and off the pitch so we are delighted he has extended his stay with us," said Howe.
"He is a key part of our squad and has played a huge role in our progress since his arrival.
"He knows exactly what it means to represent this great club and is hungry to succeed, and that can only help the team and the club going forward."
Newcastle will next be in action on Saturday 21 October when they host Crystal Palace looking to make it five wins from their last six Premier League matches.
