The search for extra dimensions has so far yielded no positive results at the LHC. Along with the discovery of a 125 GeV Higgs boson, this implies a moderate degree of fine tuning in the parameter space of the Randall-Sundrum model. Within a 6-dimensional warped compactification scenario, with its own interesting phenomenological consequences, the parameters associated with the additional spatial direction can be used to eliminate the need for fine tuning. We examine the constraints on this model due to the 8 TeV LHC data and survey the parameter space that could be probed at the 14 TeV run of the LHC. We also identify the region of parameter space that is consistent with the recently reported excess in the diphoton channel in the 13 TeV data. Finally, as an alternative explanation for the observed excess, we discuss a scenario with brane-localized Einstein-Hilbert terms with Standard Model fields in the bulk.
