The invention relates to a vibration damper assembly (40; 140) for an elongate first component (10; 30), which is arranged at a connecting end (11; 31) in a longitudinal direction (LD) of the first component (10; 30) for mechanical connection to a second component (20). The vibration damper assembly (40; 140) comprises at least two damper groups (41a, 41b, 41c, 41d, 41e) which are arranged in an end section (12; 32) of the first component (10; 30) with the connection end (11; 31) and are spaced apart from one another in the longitudinal direction (LD), wherein each of the damper groups (41a, 41b, 41c, 41d, 41e) comprises a plurality of individual vibration dampers (42a, 42b, 42c, 42d, 42e) which are arranged distributed on a circumferential wall (14) of the first component (10; 30) in a circumferential direction (CD). In order to reduce the problems caused by tonalities in wind energy installations (1) in a simple and cost-effective way, the damper groups have different natural frequencies from each other. The invention also relates to a wind energy installation (1).
