Run hot tub from 240V garage sub panel?

I have a garage 240V sub panel that run from the inside of my house.My garage lights, my pool pump run off of it. I also have an electrical outlet in my yard that i do not use at all. Would i be able to run a hot tub off this sub panel and/or would i be able to use this spare yard outlet for my GFCI Load Center? Thanks

Probably.

It depends. How much power does your hot tub draw? Does it need a 120V or a 240V circuit? What size are the conductors going to the spare yard outlet?
