Howe continued, "Harvey is a player who has consistently produced special moments at vital times for the team.
He's calm in front of goal, whether that's one-on-one or from distance, and is always a threat from wide areas."
Sporting Director Ross Wilson emphasized Barnes' importance, saying, "Harvey's record for the club speaks for itself.
He managed to reach new heights last season on a personal level and that's testament to the mentality and professionalism we see on a daily basis."
Wilson added, "We see him as a big part of our plans going forward, and it made total sense to secure his future.
Much like we've done with Fabian Schär and Sven Botman in recent months, we're delighted to extend that experience into what we see as Harvey's prime years."
Barnes is set to become the club's first-choice left winger following Anthony Gordon's departure to Barcelona in May 2026.
Newcastle also signed Bazoumana Touré from Hoffenheim to strengthen their wing options, with hopes he will complement Barnes well this season.
